[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt 5.4.0
by Daniel Veillard
This is tagged in git, I have put the signed tarball and source RPM at
the usual place:
https://libvirt.org/sources/
I did not build the binaries rpms, first it broke because I was still on F28
c.f. Jan's patch, and second it's true to provides little value, it's doubtful
people would just install my binaries as is. Will likely stick to sources
as part of releases in the future.
Release looks fine in my limited testing, https://ci.centos.org/view/libvirt/
is of a rare uniform green color, which is promising too !
Please give it a try, I will likely cut RC2 on Thrusday, and then
if everything goes fine push the GA over the w.e. or Monday,
thanks,
Daniel

[Libvirt-announce] LSN-2019-0003: Insecure permissions for systemd socket for virtlockd/virtlogd
by Daniel P. Berrangé
Libvirt Security Notice: LSN-2019-0003
======================================
Summary: Insecure permissions for systemd socket for
virtlockd/virtlogd
Reported on: 20190430
Published on: 20190421
Fixed on: 20190421
Reported by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange(a)redhat.com>
Patched by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange(a)redhat.com>
See also: CVE-2019-10132
Description
-----------
The virtlockd-admin.socket and virtlogd-admin.socket unit files do
not set the SocketMode parameter and thus create a world accessible
UNIX domain socket. Furthermore the code fails to validate the
identity of clients connecting to these sockets.
Impact
------
An unprivileged user is able to connect to the virtlockd or virtlogd
daemons and use the administrative RPC commands to elevate their
privileges
Workaround
----------
Disable the virtlockd-admin.socket and virtlogd-admin.socket units
in systemd. Alternative customize them to add SocketMode=0600
locally.

[Libvirt-announce] RElease of libvirt-5.3.0
by Daniel Veillard
A bit late, sorry I was in vacations, but the release is now tagged in git
and I pushed the signed tarball and rpms to the normal place:
https://libvirt.org/sources/
Please note that following discussion on last release the FTP server will
soon be shutdown.
I also pushed the related libvirt-python release that you can find in git
and at
https://libvirt.org/sources/python/
This is a balanced release, one thing to note is the removal of the support
for the old 4.x VirtualBox releases
New feature:
- qemu: Add support for setting the emulator scheduler parameters
I/O threads and vCPU threads already support setting schedulers, but
until now it was impossible to do so for the main QEMU thread (emulator
thread in the libvirt naming). This is, however, requested for some
very specific scenarios, for example when vCPU threads are running at
such priority that could starve the main thread.
Removed feature:
- vbox: Drop support for VirtualBox 4.x releases
Support for all the 4.x releases was ended by VirtualBox maintainers in
December 2015. Therefore, libvirt support for these releases is
dropped.
Improvements:
- qemu: Use PCI by default for RISC-V guests
PCI support for RISC-V guests was already available in libvirt 5.1.0,
but it required the user to opt-in by manually assigning PCI addresses:
with this release, RISC-V guests will use PCI automatically when
running against a recent enough (4.0.0+) QEMU release.
- qemu: Advertise firmware autoselection in domain capabilities
The firmware autoselection feature is now exposed in domain
capabilities and management applications can query for accepted values,
i.e. values that are accepted and for which libvirt found firmware
descriptor files. Firmware Secure Boot support is also advertised.
- Drop YAJL 1 support
YAJL 2 is widely adopted and maintaining side by side support for two
versions is unnecessary.
Bug fixes:
- rpc: cleanup in virNetTLSContextNew
Failed new gnutls context allocations in virNetTLSContextNew function
results in double free and segfault. Occasional memory leaks may also
occur.
- virsh: various completers fixes
There were some possible crashers, memory leaks, etc. which are now
fixed.
- qemu: Make hugepages work with memfd backend
Due to a bug in command line generation libvirt did not honor hugepages
setting with memfd backend.
- Enforce ACL write permission for getting guest time & hostname
Getting the guest time and hostname both require use of guest agent
commands. These must not be allowed for read-only users, so the
permissions check must validate "write" permission not "read".
Thanks everybody for your help bringing this release up,
Daniel
