+ <p>Ian Jackson reports on the debian-security mailinglist:</p>
+ <blockquote cite="http://lists.debian.org/debian-security/2008/02/msg00064.html">
+ <p>When a block device read or write request is made by the guest,
+ nothing checks that the request is within the range supported by the
+ backend, but the code in the backend typically assumes that the
+ request is sensible.</p>
+ <p>Depending on the backend, this can allow the guest to read
+ and write arbitrary memory locations in qemu, and possibly gain
+ control over the qemu process, escaping from the
+ emulation/virtualisation.</p>
