CVE-2020-15469

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in various system emulators of QEMU that occurs while performing MMIO r/w operations when the respective handler function is not defined. This flaw allows a privileged guest user to invoke the MMIO operation 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.
