It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-6815 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-6815/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-6815/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-6815","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-6815/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-6815","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2015-6815","GHSA-m4j6-cfvh-8j5q","UBUNTU-CVE-2015-6815"],"analysis":{"component_type":"other","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"QEMU emulator","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service via infinite loop and guest crash in QEMU's network packet processing.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"eos","vendor":"arista"},{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"suse_linux_enterprise_debuginfo","vendor":"novell"},{"product":"suse_linux_enterprise_desktop","vendor":"novell"},{"product":"suse_linux_enterprise_server","vendor":"novell"},{"product":"suse_linux_enterprise_software_development_kit","vendor":"novell"},{"product":"qemu","vendor":"qemu"},{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"openstack","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"xen","vendor":"xen"}],"cvss":{"score":3.5,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-835","name":"Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition"}],"description":"The process_tx_desc function in hw/net/e1000.c in QEMU before 2.4.0.1 does not properly process transmit descriptor data when sending a network packet, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and guest crash) via unspecified vectors.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in QEMU","id":"CVE-2015-6815","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","fedoraproject:fedora","novell:suse_linux_enterprise_desktop","novell:suse_linux_enterprise_server","novell:suse_linux_enterprise_software_development_kit","qemu:qemu","redhat:enterprise_linux","redhat:openstack","xen:xen"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":13,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-6816"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-6812"},"products":["QEMU"],"published":"2020-01-31","related":[{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Arista Extensible Operating System Incomplete Comparison with Missing Factors","id":"CVE-2026-7473","kev_date_added":"2026-06-09","published":"2026-06-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8236","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-11-19"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10188","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18017","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-14491","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-10-02"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Arista EOS","id":"CVE-2023-24509","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-13"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5165","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-08-12"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["QEMU"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service via infinite loop and guest crash in QEMU's network packet processing.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-6815/"}
