A flaw was found in openstack-tripleo-common as shipped with Red Hat Openstack Enterprise 10 and 11. The sudoers file as installed with OSP's openstack-tripleo-common package is much too permissive. It contains several lines for the mistral user that have wildcards that allow directory traversal with '..' and it grants full passwordless root access to the validations user.
Memory leak in the keyboard input event handlers support in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local guest OS privileged users to cause a denial of service (host memory consumption) by rapidly generating large keyboard events.
Memory leak in the audio/audio.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by repeatedly starting and stopping audio capture.
Quick Emulator (Qemu) built with the USB EHCI Emulation support is vulnerable to a memory leakage issue. It could occur while processing packet data in 'ehciinittransfer'. A guest user/process could use this issue to leak host memory, resulting in DoS for a host.
Quick Emulator (Qemu) built with the USB redirector usb-guest support is vulnerable to a memory leakage flaw. It could occur while destroying the USB redirector in 'usbredirhandledestroy'. A guest user/process could use this issue to leak host memory, resulting in DoS for a host.
Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the 16550A UART emulation support is vulnerable to a divide by zero issue. It could occur while updating serial device parameters in 'serialupdateparameters'.
A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process instance on the host, resulting in DoS.

Memory leak in the usbxhciexit function in hw/usb/hcd-xhci.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator), when the xhci uses msix, allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (memory consumption and possibly QEMU process crash) by repeatedly unplugging a USB device.
Quick emulator(Qemu) built with the virtio framework is vulnerable to a null pointer dereference flaw. It could occur if the guest was to set the I/O descriptor buffer length to a large value.
A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu instance on the host resulting in DoS.
Upstream fix: ------------- -> https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-09/msg03546.html

Integer overflow in the nettxpktinit function in hw/net/nettxpkt.c in QEMU (aka Quick Emulator) allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (QEMU process crash) via the maximum fragmentation count, which triggers an unchecked multiplication and NULL pointer dereference.
Quick emulator (Qemu) built with the Cirrus CLGD 54xx VGA Emulator support is vulnerable to a divide by zero issue. It could occur while copying VGA data when cirrus graphics mode was set to be VGA. A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process instance on the host, resulting in DoS.
Qemu emulator built with the Task Priority Register(TPR) optimizations for 32-bit Windows guests, is vulnerable to a information leakage issue. It could occur while accessing Task Priority Register(TPR).
A privileged user/process inside guest could use this issue to leak host memory bytes.
