RHEL 8 : virt:av and virt-devel:av (RHSA-2022:5002)

high Nessus Plugin ID 162165

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for virt:av / virt-devel:av.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:5002 advisory.

The Advanced Virtualization module provides the user-space component for running virtual machines that use KVM in environments managed by Red Hat products.

Security Fix(es):

* QEMU: QXL: integer overflow in cursor_alloc() can lead to heap buffer overflow (CVE-2021-4206)

* QEMU: QXL: double fetch in qxl_cursor() can lead to heap buffer overflow (CVE-2021-4207)

* QEMU: virtio-net: map leaking on error during receive (CVE-2022-26353)

* QEMU: vhost-vsock: missing virtqueue detach on error can lead to memory leak (CVE-2022-26354)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Bug Fix(es):

* Remove '\n' from vhostuser ifname [rhel-av-8.4.z] (BZ#2077923)

* When doing a cpu-baseline between skylake and cascadelake, cascadelake is selected as baseline.
(BZ#2084031)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the RHEL virt:av / virt-devel:av packages based on the guidance in RHSA-2022:5002.
