A out-of-bounds heap buffer access issue was found in the SLiRP
networking implementation of the QEMU emulator. It occurs in tcp_emu()
routine while emulating IRC and other protocols due to unsafe usage of
snprintf(3) function.
A user/process could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process on the host
resulting in DoS or potentially execute arbitrary code with privileges
of the QEMU process on the host.
