Subject: CVE-2019-8934 QEMU: ppc64: sPAPR emulator leaks the host hardware
identity
Hello,
It was found that the KVM PPC64 emulator for the sPAPR machine leaks the host
hardware identity to all running guests. The sPAPAR(hw/ppc/spapr.c) emulator
populates the device tree for the guest with two fields "host-serial" and
"host-model". The values for these fields are taken via hypervisor from the
host device tree data exposed in "/proc/device-tree/system-id" and
"/proc/device-tree/model" file respectively.
Upstream patch:
