Small USB packets are combined     into a single, large transfer request, to reduce the     overhead and improve performance. The combined size of     the bulk transfer is used to dynamically allocate a     variable length array (VLA) on the stack without proper     validation. Since the total size is not bounded, a     malicious guest could use this flaw to influence the     array length and cause the QEMU process to perform an     excessive allocation on the(CVE-2021-3527)

  - QEMU 5.0.0 has a use-after-free in hw/usb/hcd-xhci.c     because the usb_packet_map return value is not     checked.(CVE-2020-25084)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the     am53c974 SCSI host bus adapter emulation of QEMU in     versions before 6.0.0. This issue occurs while handling     the 'Information Transfer' command. This flaw allows a     privileged guest user to crash the QEMU process on the     host, resulting in a denial of service. The highest     threat from this vulnerability is to system     availability.(CVE-2020-35505)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability was found in     the virtio vhost-user GPU device (vhost-user-gpu) of     QEMU in versions up to and including 6.0. The flaw     exists in virgl_cmd_get_capset_info() in     contrib/vhost-user-gpu/virgl.c and could occur due to     the read of uninitialized memory. A malicious guest     could exploit this issue to leak memory from the host.
    (CVE-2021-3545)

  - Several memory leaks were found in the virtio     vhost-user GPU device (vhost-user-gpu) of QEMU in     versions up to and including 6.0. They exist in     contrib/vhost-user-gpu/vhost-user-gpu.c and     contrib/vhost-user-gpu/virgl.c due to improper release     of memory (i.e., free) after effective     lifetime.(CVE-2021-3544)

  - A flaw was found in vhost-user-gpu of QEMU in versions     up to and including 6.0. An out-of-bounds write     vulnerability can allow a malicious guest to crash the     QEMU process on the host resulting in a denial of     service or potentially execute arbitrary code on the     host with the privileges of the QEMU process. The     highest threat from this vulnerability is to data     confidentiality and integrity as well as system     availability.(CVE-2021-3546)

  - A race condition flaw was found in the 9pfs server     implementation of QEMU up to and including 5.2.0. This     flaw allows a malicious 9p client to cause a     use-after-free error, potentially escalating their     privileges on the system. The highest threat from this     vulnerability is to confidentiality, integrity as well     as system availability.(CVE-2021-20181)
