A flaw was found in QEMU, in the virtio-scsi, virtio-blk, and virtio-crypto devices. The size for virtqueue_push as set in virtio_scsi_complete_req / virtio_blk_req_complete / virito_crypto_req_complete could be larger than the true size of the data which has been sent to guest. Once virtqueue_push() finally calls dma_memory_unmap to ummap the in_iov, it may call the address_space_write function to write back the data. Some uninitialized data may exist in the bounce.buffer, leading to an information leak.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2024:4304-1 advisory.

    - CVE-2024-7409: Fixed denial of service via improper synchronization in QEMU NBD Server during socket     closure (bsc#1229007)
    - CVE-2024-8354: Fixed assertion failure in usb_ep_get() in usb (bsc#1230834)
    - CVE-2024-8612: Fixed information leak in virtio devices (bsc#1230915)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of QEMU installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 8.2.1 and therefore vulnerable to the following:
A flaw was found in QEMU, in the virtio-scsi, virtio-blk, and virtio-crypto devices. The size for virtqueue_push as set in virtio_scsi_complete_req / virtio_blk_req_complete / virito_crypto_req_complete could be larger than the true size of the data which has been sent to guest.
