CBL Mariner 2.0 Security Update: qemu (CVE-2022-36648)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 205044

Synopsis

The remote CBL Mariner host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The version of qemu installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2022-36648 advisory.

 - The hardware emulation in the of_dpa_cmd_add_l2_flood of rocker device model in QEMU, as used in 7.0.0 and earlier, allows remote attackers to crash the host qemu and potentially execute code on the host via execute a malformed program in the guest OS. Note: This has been disputed by multiple third parties as not a valid vulnerability due to the rocker device not falling within the virtualization use case.
 (CVE-2022-36648)

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
