Description Mikhail Kasimov 2016-10-24 11:14:30 UTC
Reference: http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q4/223
===================================================
  Hello,

Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the RTL8139 ethernet controller emulation support is vulnerable to an infinite loop issue. It could occur while transmitting packets in C+ mode of operation.


A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to consume excessive CPU cycles on the host, resulting in DoS situation.


Upstream patch:
