An user able to alter the savevm data (either on the disk or over the wire during migration) could use this flaw to to corrupt QEMU process memory on the (destination) host, which could potentially result in arbitrary code execution on the host with the privileges of the QEMU process.
The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
