I'm a day late but I just tagged it in git and pushed signed tarball and source rpm to the usual place: https://libvirt.org/sources/ Seems to work fine in my very minimal testing, there is a few red spots in CI https://ci.centos.org/view/libvirt/ but they seems mostly related to Debian 10 testing so maybe there was a hiccup on that arch in CI... I guess I will push RC2 over the week-end, and if things are fine push the final 5.7.0 release next Tuesday, in the meantime, please give it some testing, thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Red Hat Developers Tools http://developer.redhat.com/ veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-5.6.0
by Daniel Veillard 05 Aug '19

05 Aug '19

It's out ! Tagged in git and with signed tarball and source rpm at the usual place: https://libvirt.org/sources/ I also released the 5.6.0 python bindings for the release that can be found at: https://libvirt.org/sources/python/ This release includes a number of new features, notably the checkpoint APIs removes the sxpr xen support and carries a set of improvement and bug fixes as usual: New features: - qemu: Introduce a new video model of type 'bochs' Introduce a new video model type that supports the bochs-display device that was added in qemu version 3.0. - api: new virDomainCheckpoint APIs Introduce several new APIs for creating and managing checkpoints in the test and qemu drivers (the latter requires qcow2 images). Checkpoints serve as a way to tell which portions of a disk have changed since a point in time. - qemu: Add support for overriding max threads per process limit systemd-based systems impose a limit on the number of threads a process can spawn, which in some cases can be exceeded by QEMU processes running VMs. Add a max_threads_per_process option to qemu.conf to override the system default. - Remember original owners and SELinux labels of files When a domain is starting up libvirt changes DAC and SELinux labels so that domain can access it. However, it never remembered the original labels and therefore the file was returned back to root:root. With this release, the original labels are remembered and restored properly. - network: Allow passing arbitrary options to dnsmasq This works similarly to the existing support for passing arbitary options to QEMU, and just like that feature it comes with no support guarantees. Removed features: - xen: Remove sxpr config support Remove the sxpr style config parser and formatter a year after the xend driver was removed. Improvements: - qemu: Allow XML validation for snapshot creation Add flag VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_VALIDATE to validate snapshot input XML. For virsh, users can use it as virsh snapshot-create --validate. - Support encrypted soft TPM A soft TPM backend could be encrypted with passphrase. Now libvirt supports using a secret object to hold the passphrase, and referring to it via the encryption element of the TPM device. - test driver: Expand API coverage Additional APIs have been implemented in the test driver. - Implement per-driver locking Drivers now acquire a lock when they're loaded, ensuring that there can never be two instances of the same driver active at a time. - nss: Report newer addresses first In some cases, a guest might be assigned a new IP address by DHCP before the previous lease has expired, in which case the NSS plugin will correctly report both addresses; many applications, however, ignore all addresses but the first, and may thus end up trying to connect using a stale address. To prevent that from happening, the NSS plugin will now always report the newest address first. - util: Optimize mass closing of FDs when spawning child processes When the limit on the number of FDs is very high, closing all unwanted FDs after calling fork() can take a lot of time and delay the start of the child process. libvirt will now use an optimized algorithm that minimizes such delays. Bug fixes: - logging: Ensure virtlogd rollover takes priority over logrotate virtlogd implements its own rollover mechanism, but until now logrotate could end up acting on the logs before virtlogd had a chance to do so itself. Thanks everybody who helped with this release, be it with bug reports, patches, reviews, documenation, localization, etc ...

I completely forgot to send plans for this and already a bit late for release schedule, so I just tagged RC1 in git and pushed the signed tarball and source rpm to the usual place: https://libvirt.org/sources/ Seems okay in my very limited tests here, there is a few red tests on jenkins but nothing looking like core libvirt issues https://ci.centos.org/view/libvirt/ I will try to cut RC2 once I'm back in Europe Thursday, and then get the final release by the w.e. or Monday. In the meantime, please give it some testing ! thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Red Hat Developers Tools http://developer.redhat.com/ veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-5.5.0
by Daniel Veillard 02 Jul '19

02 Jul '19

It's there, only one day late :-) tagged in git as with signed tarball and source rpms uploaded to the usual place: https://libvirt.org/sources/ I also released the python bindings that you can find at: https://libvirt.org/sources/python/ This is a rich release with security fixes, new APIs, some deprecated features and as usual improvements and bug fixes ! Security: - api: Prevent access to several APIs over read-only connections Certain APIs give root-equivalent access to the host, and as such should be limited to privileged users. CVE-2019-10161, CVE-2019-10166, CVE-2019-10167, CVE-2019-10168. New features: - qemu: Support SMMUv3 IOMMU SMMUv3 is an IOMMU implementation for ARM virt guests. - network: Introduce the network port API This new public API can be used by virtualization drivers to manage network resources associated with guests, and is a further step towards splitting libvirtd into multiple daemons. Removed features: - qemu: Remove support for virDomainQemuAttach and virConnectDomainXMLFromNative APIs The qemu implementations for the APIs mentioned above were removed and the APIs now return an error. The implementation was stale for a long time and did not work with modern QEMU command lines, generated from libvirt or otherwise. - Stop supporting migration of config files from pre-XDG layout The new layout was introduced with libvirt 0.9.13 (Jul 2012). - Remove Avahi mDNS support This feature was never used outside of virt-manager, which has itself stopped using it a while ago. Improvements: - sysinfo: Report SMBIOS information on aarch64 While SMBIOS support has historically been limited to x86_64, modern aarch64 machines often offer access to the same information as well, and libvirt now exposes it to the user when that's the case. - test driver: Expand API coverage Even more APIs that were missing from the test driver have now been implemented. - virt-xml-validate: Allow input to be read from stdin - qemu: Validate spapr-vio addresses as 32-bit libvirt has always considered these addresses (used for pSeries guests) as 64-bit, but the sPAPR specification says that they're 32-bit instead. Bug fixes: - qemu: Set process affinity correctly when using <numatune> libvirt would mistakenly interpret the nodeset attribute as a list of CPUs instead of as a list of NUMA node, and the process affinity would be set incorrectly as a result; this has now been fixed. Thanks everybody for your help with this release, be that with bugs, fixes, reviews, documentation, localisation, etc ...

As planned I tagged RC1 in git and pushed signed tarball and source rpm to the usual place: https://libvirt.org/sources/ I'm on the road with even less testing capacity than usual, but https://ci.centos.org/view/libvirt/ looks rather green except for some go bindings so I assume we are in pretty good shape, i.e. it will hopefully compile and run for most of you :-) I hope to be back on Fraiday and make an evening release again, then if all goes fine we can push on Mon or Tuesday, please give it some testing, thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Red Hat Developers Tools http://developer.redhat.com/ veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[Libvirt-announce] LSN-2019-0007: virConnect*HypervisorCPU do not check for read-only connection
by Ján Tomko 24 Jun '19

24 Jun '19

Libvirt Security Notice: LSN-2019-0007 ====================================== Summary: virConnect*HypervisorCPU do not check for read-only connection Reported on: 20190604 Published on: 20190620 Fixed on: 20190620 Reported by: Ján Tomko <jtomko(a)redhat.com> Patched by: Ján Tomko <jtomko(a)redhat.com> See also: CVE-2019-10168 Description ----------- The virConnect*HypervisorCPU APIs allow reporting CPU capabilities from arbitrary emulator binaries without checking for a read-only connection. This allows unprivileged users to execute arbitrary binaries with elevated privileges. Impact ------ The default libvirt configuration allows all local user accounts read-only access to the libvirtd daemon. Any local user can provide an arbitrary emulator, executing arbitrary binaries as the configured QEMU user. Since v5.1.0, the emulator binary is run with CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, essentially having root privileges. Workaround ---------- Edit the /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf configuration file, to set the 'unix_sock_ro_perms = "0700"' to prevent local users from connecting to libvirt. Alternatively setup a policy kit rule to prevent them access without first authenticating as root.

Libvirt Security Notice: LSN-2019-0005 ====================================== Summary: virDomainManagedSaveDefineXML does not check for read-only connection Reported on: 20190604 Published on: 20190620 Fixed on: 20190620 Reported by: Matthias Gerstner <mgerstner(a)suse.de> Patched by: Ján Tomko <jtomko(a)redhat.com> See also: CVE-2019-10166 Description ----------- The virDomainManagedSaveDefineXML API redefines the manage-saved domain XML without checking for a read-only connection. This allows unprivileged users to check for existence of arbitrary files or executing arbitrary binaries with elevated privileges. Impact ------ The default libvirt configuration allows all local user accounts read-only access to the libvirtd daemon. Any local user can provide an arbitrary emulator, executing arbitrary binaries as the configured QEMU user. Since v5.1.0, the emulator binary is run with CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, essentially having root privileges. Workaround ---------- Edit the /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf configuration file, to set the 'unix_sock_ro_perms = "0700"' to prevent local users from connecting to libvirt. Alternatively setup a policy kit rule to prevent them access without first authenticating as root.

Libvirt Security Notice: LSN-2019-0004 ====================================== Summary: virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc does not check for read-only connection Reported on: 20190604 Published on: 20190620 Fixed on: 20190620 Reported by: Matthias Gerstner <mgerstner(a)suse.de> Patched by: Ján Tomko <Ján Tomko> See also: CVE-2019-10161 Description ----------- The virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc accesses and parses arbitrary files without checking for the read-only connection. This allows unprivileged users to check for existence of arbitrary files or executing arbitrary binaries with elevated privileges. Impact ------ The default libvirt configuration allows all local user accounts read-only access to the libvirtd daemon. Any local user can check for the existence of an arbitrary file by watching for a different error message. Additionally, since v1.2.19, by providing a crafted save file pointing to an arbitrary emulator, executing arbitrary binaries as the configured QEMU user is possible. Since v5.1.0, the emulator binary is run with CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, essentially having root privileges. Workaround ---------- Edit the /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf configuration file, to set the 'unix_sock_ro_perms = "0700"' to prevent local users from connecting to libvirt. Alternatively setup a policy kit rule to prevent them access without first authenticating as root.

[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-5.4.0
by Daniel Veillard 03 Jun '19

03 Jun '19

It's out ! The release is tagged in git, and I provided signed tarball and source rpms to the usual place: https://libvirt.org/sources/ I also cut off a 5.4.0 release of the python bindings but code is same a 5.3.0 one, you can find signed tarball and source rpms at: https://libvirt.org/sources/python/ Main theme of this release is security, there is a set of advisory covered so users are invited to update, along with some improvements and bug fixes. Security: - cpu: Introduce support for the md-clear CPUID bit This bit is set when microcode provides the mechanism to invoke a flush of various exploitable CPU buffers by invoking the x86 VERW instruction. CVE-2018-12126, CVE-2018-12127, CVE-2018-12130, CVE-2019-11091. - Restrict user access to virt-admin, virtlogd and virtlockd The intended users for these facilities are the root user and the libvirtd service respectively, but these restrictions were not enforced correctly. CVE-2019-10132. Improvements: - test driver: Expand API coverage Several APIs that were missing from the test driver have now been implemented. - Avoid unnecessary static linking Most binaries shipped as part of libvirt, for example virtlogd and libvirt_iohelper, were embedding parts of the library even though they also linked against the libvirt.so dynamic library. This is no longer the case, which results in both the disk and memory footprint being reduced. - qemu: Report stat-htlb-pgalloc and stat-htlb-pgfail balloon stats These stats have been introduced in QEMU 3.0. Bug fixes: - qemu: Fix emulator scheduler support Setting the scheduler for QEMU's main thread before QEMU had a chance to start up other threads was misleading as it would affect other threads (vCPU and I/O) as well. In some particular situations this could also lead to an error when the thread for vCPU #0 was being moved to its cpu,cpuacct cgroup. This was fixed so that the scheduler for the main thread is set after QEMU starts. - apparmor: Allow hotplug of vhost-scsi devices Thanks everybody who contributed to this release, be it with bug reports, patches, reviews, docs ... Enjoy !
