Description
A flaw was found in the way QEMU-KVM handled erroneous data provided by
the Linux virtio-net driver, used by guest operating systems. Due to a
deficiency in the TSO (TCP segment offloading) implementation, a guest's
virtio-net driver would transmit improper data to a certain QEMU-KVM
process on the host, causing the guest to crash. A remote attacker could
use this flaw to send specially-crafted data to a target guest system,
causing that guest to crash. (CVE-2010-0741)
