+Subject: [PATCH 5/5] vga: make sure vga register setup for vbe stays intact
+ (CVE-2016-3712).
+
+Call vbe_update_vgaregs() when the guest touches GFX, SEQ or CRT
+registers, to make sure the vga registers will always have the
+values needed by vbe mode. This makes sure the sanity checks
+applied by vbe_fixup_regs() are effective.
+
+Without this guests can muck with shift_control, can turn on planar
+vga modes or text mode emulation while VBE is active, making qemu
+take code paths meant for CGA compatibility, but with the very
+large display widths and heigts settable using VBE registers.
+
+Which is good for one or another buffer overflow. Not that
+critical as they typically read overflows happening somewhere
+in the display code. So guests can DoS by crashing qemu with a
+segfault, but it is probably not possible to break out of the VM.
+
