   An update that solves 5 vulnerabilities and has 10 fixes is
   now available.

Description:

   qemu was updated to fix several security issues and bugs.

   The following vulnerabilities were fixed:
   - CVE-2015-5154: Heap-based buffer overflow in the IDE subsystem in QEMU,
     when the container has a CDROM drive enabled, allows local guest users
     to execute arbitrary code on the host via unspecified ATAPI commands.
     (bsc#938344).
   - CVE-2015-5278: QEMU was vulnerable to an infinite loop issue that could
     occur when receiving packets over the network. (bsc#945989)
   - CVE-2015-5279: QEMU was vulnerable to a heap buffer overflow issue that
     could occur when receiving packets over the network. (bsc#945987)
   - CVE-2015-6855: QEMU was vulnerable to a divide by zero issue that could
     occur while executing an IDE command WIN_READ_NATIVE_MAX to determine
      the maximum size of a drive. (bsc#945404)
   - CVE-2014-7815: The set_pixel_format function in ui/vnc.c in QEMU allowed
     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a small
     bytes_per_pixel value.  (bsc#902737):

   Also these non-security issues were fixed:
   - bsc#937572: Fixed dictzip on big endian systems

   - bsc#937125: Fix parsing of scsi-disk wwn uint64 property
   - bsc#945778: Drop .probe hooks for DictZip and tar block drivers
   - bsc#937572: Fold common-obj-y -> block-obj-y change into original patches
   - bsc#928308,bsc#944017: Fix virtio-ccw index errors when initrd gets too
     large
   - bsc#936537: Fix possible qemu-img error when converting to compressed
     qcow2 image
   - bsc#939216: Fix reboot fail after install using uefi
