Last modified
CVE-2016-0749 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The smartcard interaction in SPICE allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (QEMU-KVM process crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to connecting to a guest VM, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.. EPSS estimates a 8.49% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
