CVE-2021-3527 3 Debian, Qemu, Redhat 3 Debian Linux, Qemu, Enterprise Linux 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
A flaw was found in the USB redirector device (usb-redir) of QEMU. Small USB packets are combined into a single, large transfer request, to reduce the overhead and improve performance. The combined size of the bulk transfer is used to dynamically allocate a variable length array (VLA) on the stack without proper validation. Since the total size is not bounded, a malicious guest could use this flaw to influence the array length and cause the QEMU process to perform an excessive allocation on the stack, resulting in a denial of service.
CVE-2021-3507 3 Debian, Qemu, Redhat 3 Debian Linux, Qemu, Enterprise Linux 2026-06-17 3.6 LOW 6.1 MEDIUM
A heap buffer overflow was found in the floppy disk emulator of QEMU up to 6.0.0 (including). It could occur in fdctrl_transfer_handler() in hw/block/fdc.c while processing DMA read data transfers from the floppy drive to the guest system. A privileged guest user could use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host resulting in DoS scenario, or potential information leakage from the host memory.
CVE-2021-3416 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Qemu and 1 more 4 Debian Linux, Fedora, Qemu and 1 more 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 6.0 MEDIUM
A potential stack overflow via infinite loop issue was found in various NIC emulators of QEMU in versions up to and including 5.2.0. The issue occurs in loopback mode of a NIC wherein reentrant DMA checks get bypassed. A guest user/process may use this flaw to consume CPU cycles or crash the QEMU process on the host resulting in DoS scenario.
CVE-2021-3409 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Qemu and 1 more 4 Debian Linux, Fedora, Qemu and 1 more 2026-06-17 4.6 MEDIUM 5.7 MEDIUM
The patch for CVE-2020-17380/CVE-2020-25085 was found to be ineffective, thus making QEMU vulnerable to the out-of-bounds read/write access issues previously found in the SDHCI controller emulation code. This flaw allows a malicious privileged guest to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service or potential code execution. QEMU up to (including) 5.2.0 is affected by this.
CVE-2021-3392 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Qemu 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Qemu 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 3.2 LOW
A use-after-free flaw was found in the MegaRAID emulator of QEMU. This issue occurs while processing SCSI I/O requests in the case of an error mptsas_free_request() that does not dequeue the request object 'req' from a pending requests queue. This flaw allows a privileged guest user to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service. Versions between 2.10.0 and 5.2.0 are potentially affected.
CVE-2021-20295 1 Qemu 1 Qemu 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 6.5 MEDIUM
It was discovered that the update for the virt:rhel module in the RHSA-2020:4676 (https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:4676) erratum released as part of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3 failed to include the fix for the qemu-kvm component issue CVE-2020-10756, which was previously corrected in virt:rhel/qemu-kvm via erratum RHSA-2020:4059 (https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2020:4059). CVE-2021-20295 was assigned to that Red Hat specific security regression. For more details about the original security issue CVE-2020-10756, refer to bug 1835986 or the CVE page: https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2020-10756.
CVE-2021-20263 1 Qemu 1 Qemu 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 3.3 LOW
A flaw was found in the virtio-fs shared file system daemon (virtiofsd) of QEMU. The new 'xattrmap' option may cause the 'security.capability' xattr in the guest to not drop on file write, potentially leading to a modified, privileged executable in the guest. In rare circumstances, this flaw could be used by a malicious user to elevate their privileges within the guest.
CVE-2021-20257 4 Debian, Fedoraproject, Qemu and 1 more 8 Debian Linux, Fedora, Qemu and 5 more 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 6.5 MEDIUM
An infinite loop flaw was found in the e1000 NIC emulator of the QEMU. This issue occurs while processing transmits (tx) descriptors in process_tx_desc if various descriptor fields are initialized with invalid values. This flaw allows a guest to consume CPU cycles on the host, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
CVE-2021-20255 2 Debian, Qemu 2 Debian Linux, Qemu 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 5.5 MEDIUM
A stack overflow via an infinite recursion vulnerability was found in the eepro100 i8255x device emulator of QEMU. This issue occurs while processing controller commands due to a DMA reentry issue. This flaw allows a guest user or process to consume CPU cycles or crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
CVE-2021-20221 3 Debian, Qemu, Redhat 3 Debian Linux, Qemu, Enterprise Linux 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 6.0 MEDIUM
An out-of-bounds heap buffer access issue was found in the ARM Generic Interrupt Controller emulator of QEMU up to and including qemu 4.2.0on aarch64 platform. The issue occurs because while writing an interrupt ID to the controller memory area, it is not masked to be 4 bits wide. It may lead to the said issue while updating controller state fields and their subsequent processing. A privileged guest user may use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host resulting in DoS scenario.
CVE-2021-20203 3 Debian, Fedoraproject, Qemu 3 Debian Linux, Fedora, Qemu 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 3.2 LOW
An integer overflow issue was found in the vmxnet3 NIC emulator of the QEMU for versions up to v5.2.0. It may occur if a guest was to supply invalid values for rx/tx queue size or other NIC parameters. A privileged guest user may use this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host resulting in DoS scenario.
CVE-2021-20196 2 Debian, Qemu 2 Debian Linux, Qemu 2026-06-17 2.1 LOW 6.5 MEDIUM
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the floppy disk emulator of QEMU. This issue occurs while processing read/write ioport commands if the selected floppy drive is not initialized with a block device.
