CVE-2013-4151

Michael S. Tsirkin writes:

QEMU 1.0 out-of-bounds buffer write in virtio_load@virtio/virtio.c

So we have this code since way back when:

    num = qemu_get_be32(f);

    for (i = 0; i < num; i++) {
        vdev->vq[i].vring.num = qemu_get_be32(f);

array of vqs has size VIRTIO_PCI_QUEUE_MAX, so
on invalid input this will write beyond end of buffer.

An user able to alter the savevm data (either on the disk or over the wire
during migration) could use this flaw to to corrupt QEMU process memory on
the (destination) host, which could potentially result in arbitrary code
execution on the host with the privileges of the QEMU process.
