Synopsis: Important: libvirt security update
Issue Date: 2013-01-28
CVE Numbers: CVE-2013-0170
—
A flaw was found in the way libvirtd handled connection cleanup (when a
connection was being closed) under certain error conditions. A remote attacker
able to establish a read-only connection to libvirtd could use this flaw to
crash libvirtd or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the root user. (CVE-2013-0170)
After installing the updated packages, libvirtd will be restarted
automatically.
