ALAS2-2020-1485

Related Vulnerabilities: CVE-2020-1983  

A use after free vulnerability in ip_reass() in ip_input.c of libslirp 4.2.0 and prior releases allows crafted packets to cause a denial of service. A use-after-free flaw was found in the SLiRP networking implementation of the QEMU emulator. Specifically, this flaw occurs in the ip_reass() routine while reassembling incoming IP fragments whose combined size is bigger than 65k. This flaw allows an attacker to crash the QEMU process on the host, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-1983)
