CVE-2016-6888 (retired)

Priority
Description
Integer overflow in the net_tx_pkt_init function in hw/net/net_tx_pkt.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.
