The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2007-4993 By use of a specially crafted grub configuration file a domU user may be able to execute arbitary code upon the dom0 when pygrub is being used. CVE-2007-1320 Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the Cirrus VGA extension, provided by QEMU, may allow local users to execute arbitrary code via "bitblt" heap overflow.
