Hi,

I had an idea I wanted to share and see what level of interest there was in participating and if anyone knows of a process that other projects follow for this.

I'd like to start a more formal and transparent security audit of QEMU. The way I'd imagine it working is something like this:

1) People volunteer to be part of the audit team

2) Two people walk through a particular piece of code and independently flag anything that looks like a potential security issue.

3) Two people independently review everything that's flagged to see if there's a security issue.

Step (3) is something that requires a fairly deep understanding of QEMU but step (2) is probably something that a lot of people could participate in.

I'd want to focus initially on the common PC devices. The list isn't all that large and a review like this should only take a few hours to complete each step.

Would folks be interested in participating in something like this? If so, I can start organizing it.

Regards,

Anthony Liguori
