   Privilege escalation via emulated floppy disk drive

   The code in qemu which emulates a floppy disk controller did not
   correctly bounds check accesses to an array and therefore was
   vulnerable to a buffer overflow attack.

   A guest which has access to an emulated floppy device can exploit this
   vulnerability to take over the qemu process elevating its privilege to
   that of the qemu process.

   All Xen systems running x86 HVM guests without stubdomains are
   vulnerable to this depending on the specific guest configuration. The
   default configuration is vulnerable.

   Guests using either the traditional "qemu-xen" or upstream qemu device
   models are vulnerable.
   Guests using a qemu-dm stubdomain to run the device model are only
   vulnerable to takeover of that service domain.

   Systems running only x86 PV guests are not vulnerable.
   ARM systems are not vulnerable.
