QEMU (aka Quick Emulator), when built with MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 Host Bus Adapter emulation support, allows local guest OS privileged users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and QEMU process crash) via vectors involving megasas command processing.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
