+ <title>libvirt: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in libvirt, allowing
+ remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause Denial of Service.

+ <affected>
+ <package name="app-emulation/libvirt" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">1.0.5.1-r3</unaffected>
+ <vulnerable range="lt">1.0.5.1-r3</vulnerable>
+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>libvirt is a C toolkit for manipulating virtual machines.</p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>An error in the virNetMessageFree() function in rpc/virnetserverclient.c
+ can lead to a use-after-free. Additionally, a socket leak in the
+ remoteDispatchStoragePoolListAllVolumes command can lead to file
+ descriptor exhaustion.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could cause certain errors during an RPC connection to
+ cause a message to be freed without being removed from the message queue,
+ possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service
+ condition. Additionally, a remote attacker could repeatedly issue the
+ command to list all pool volumes, causing a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All libvirt users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
+ "&gt;=app-emulation/libvirt-1.0.5.1-r3"
+ </code>
