What is CVE-2013-4535?

A vulnerability in the virtqueue_map_sg function within QEMU allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary files on affected systems. This is achieved through a maliciously crafted savevm image that exploits the underlying architecture of virtio-block or virtio-serial read operations. Systems running versions of QEMU prior to 1.7.2 are particularly at risk, necessitating immediate attention to security measures to mitigate potential exploits.
