CVE-2024-3447Qemu: sdhci: heap buffer overflow in sdhci_write_dataport()
Medium 6.0
In plain English
A medium-severity heap buffer overflow in qemu. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.6% (higher than 47% of all known vulnerabilities). Fixed versions are available - upgrade the affected package.
Official description
A heap-based buffer overflow was found in the SDHCI device emulation of QEMU. The bug is triggered when both `s->data_count` and the size of `s->fifo_buffer` are set to 0x200, leading to an out-of-bound access. A malicious guest could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service condition.
