CVE-2019-14514
An issue was discovered in Microvirt MEmu all versions prior to 7.0.2. A guest Android operating system inside the MEmu emulator contains a /system/bin/systemd binary that is run with root privileges on startup (this is unrelated to Red Hat's systemd init program, and is a closed-source proprietary tool that seems to be developed by Microvirt). This program opens TCP port 21509, presumably to receive installation-related commands from the host OS. Because everything after the installer:uninstall command is concatenated directly into a system() call, it is possible to execute arbitrary commands by supplying shell metacharacters.

"value": "Se detectó un problema en Microvirt MEmu todas las versiones anteriores a 7.0.2. Un sistema operativo Android invitado dentro del emulador MEmu contiene un binario /system/bin/systemd que es ejecutado con privilegios de root en el inicio (esto no está relacionado con el programa de inicio systemd de Red Hat, y es una herramienta patentada de código cerrado que parece estar desarrollada por Microvirt). Este programa abre el puerto TCP 21509, presuntamente para recibir comandos relacionados con la instalación del Sistema Operativo host. Debido a que todo después del comando installer:uninstall es concatenado directamente en una llamada system(), es posible ejecutar comandos arbitrarios mediante el suministro de metacaracteres de shell."
