Quick Emulator(Qemu) built with the MegaRAID SAS 8708EM2 Host Bus Adapter
emulation support is vulnerable to an out-of-bounds read access issue. It
could occur while looking up MegaRAID Firmware Interface(MFI) command frames
in 'megasas_lookup_frame' routine.

A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to read invalid memory
leading to crash the Qemu process on the host.

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-05/msg04424.html
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1336461

While doing MegaRAID SAS controller command frame lookup, routine
'megasas_lookup_frame' uses 'read_queue_head' value as an index
into 'frames[MEGASAS_MAX_FRAMES=2048]' array. Limit its value
within array bounds to avoid any OOB access.

Use CVE-2016-5107.

This is not yet available at
http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=history;f=hw/scsi/megasas.c but
that may be an expected place for a later update.
