4.6 security problem with KVM?

I submitted this fedora bugzilla recently:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1352325

Among other things, it shows a Windows 10 KVM virtual machine
causing strange side effects back on the fedora 24 host, which
sure seems like the sort of thing that might be a security issue.

After reading all about how 4.6 is the most secure linux release
ever, yet having this bug crop up only on the 4.6 kernel,
I just thought I'd ask if it seems like a potential security
problem to anyone else?

(Plus if it really is a security issue, maybe I'll get dozens
of experts jumping on it to fix it :-).
