3. Description:

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a full virtualization solution for
Linux on a variety of architectures. The qemu-kvm package provides the
user-space component for running virtual machines that use KVM.

Security Fix(es):

* Quick Emulator (QEMU) built with the Network Block Device (NBD) Server
support is vulnerable to a crash via a SIGPIPE signal. The crash can occur
if a client aborts a connection due to any failure during negotiation or
read operation. A remote user/process could use this flaw to crash the
qemu-nbd server resulting in a DoS. (CVE-2017-10664)

4. Solution:

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

After installing this update, shut down all running virtual machines. Once
all virtual machines have shut down, start them again for this update to
take effect.

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
