>From finder:

I don’t think this could be triggered from within the emulated system
(eg. guest-to-host escape), but I didn’t look further into that. Its
primary attack vector that I describe in the report is loading a guest
with a malformed bxrc file, which may be what he’s indirectly referring
to as the image file.

Subject: [Bug 1313194] Re: Bochs Multiple Vulnerabilities

Mollie, thanks for forwarding this report; do you know if the issue is
strictly a matter of properly constructed image file or is this
something that could be influenced from "inside" the system being
emulated?

Do you know if the example PoC files are available? Do you know if this
has been reported to upstream Bochs developers? Do you know if any CVE
numbers have been assigned?

Thanks

Title:
  Bochs Multiple Vulnerabilities

Status in “bochs” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  MSVR Vulnerability Report

  Discovered by: Jeremy Brown (jerbrown) of ReSP
  Date: 06-17-2013

  Title: Bochs Multiple Vulnerabilities
  Product: Bochs PC Emulator
  Version: 2.6.2 (latest)
  URL: http://bochs.sourceforge.net
  Download Link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/bochs/files/bochs/2.6.2/

  Repro File(s): repro1.bxrc, repro2.bxrc



  
  Product Description

  Bochs is a highly portable open source IA-32 (x86) PC emulator written
  in C++, that runs on most popular platforms. It includes emulation of
  the Intel x86 CPU, common I/O devices, and a custom BIOS. Bochs can be
  compiled to emulate many different x86 CPUs, from early 386 to the
  most recent x86-64 Intel and AMD processors which may even not reached
  the market yet.

  Vulnerability Description

  Two vulnerabilities were found in Bochs’s parsing of bxrc files
  (configuration), a format string vulnerability and a stack corruption
  vulnerability. Both of these could potentially allow an attacker to
  execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running Bochs.



  Technical Details

  I tested Bochs by running boches.exe -q -f [bxrc-file]. The first one
  is a format string vulnerability (repro1.bxrc) when boches parses the
  “floppya” field:


  The second vulnerability (repro2.bxrc) occurs boches parses the
  “romimage” field. See debugging output below for more info.
