Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:008

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : qemu

Date : January 14, 2009

Affected: 2009.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

Security vulnerabilities have been discovered and corrected in

VNC server of qemu version 0.9.1 and earlier, which could lead to

denial-of-service attacks (CVE-2008-2382), and make it easier for

remote crackers to guess the VNC password (CVE-2008-5714).

 

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.
