CVE-2020-13659

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 emulator of the QEMU. This issue occurs because the address_space_map() API while mapping physical memory into the host's virtual address space, may return NULL without setting the length parameter to zero (0). This flaw allows a guest user or process to crash the QEMU process on the host resulting in a denial of service.

In Red Hat OpenStack Platform, because the flaw has a lower impact and the fix would require a substantial amount of development, no update will be provided at this time for the RHOSP qemu-kvm-rhev package.
