Just to notice that for this particular errata actually the package
deployed in oVirt is of kind qemu-kvm-ev and not qemu-kvm and its version,
at least for oVirt 3.6 on CentOS is
currently qemu-kvm-ev-2.3.0-31.el7_2.10.1.x86_64 and
not qemu-kvm-1.5.3-105.el7_2.7.x86_64.rpm
I don't know if it is affected too and in that case the expected release
date
