+CVE-2017-7471 repeated?
+
+In the hw/9pfs/9p-proxy.c file I can see the following which is changed because of CVE-2017-7471 in the hw/9pfs/9p-local.c. I might be wrong but I guess that should be changed as well. 
+
+if(dir_path){
+v9fs_path_sprintf(target,"%s/%s",dir_path->data,name);
+}
+else{
+v9fs_path_sprintf(target,"%s",name);
+}
+
+When using the proxy backend, all accesses to the host filesystem are handled by an external process running in a chroot() jail. No need to bother about paths in this case.
+
+CVE-2017-7471 is only applicable to the local backend, because accesses are handled by QEMU directly in this case.
