QEMU has released 2.5.1.1 [0], which fixes these bugs:
* CVE-2015-8558
* CVE-2016-3710
* CVE-2016-3712
* an out of bounds write in 'cadence_uart' [1]
I wasn't able to build it reliably on my x86_64 machine. Sometimes, it
would fail the test suite, and sometimes it would pass. It passed the
tests more reliably (--rounds=10) when parallel-tests are #f, so I made
that change.
