[libvirt] LSN-2014-0008: CVE-2014-8131 deadlock or segfault in virConnectGetAllDomainStats

Libvirt Security Notice: LSN-2014-0008 ====================================== Summary: deadlock or segfault in virConnectGetAllDomainStats Reported on: 20141127 Published on: 20141205 Fixed on: 20141211 Reported by: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan(a)redhat.com&gt; Patched by: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan(a)redhat.com&gt;, Francesco Romani <fromani(a)redhat.com&gt; See also: CVE-2014-8131 Description ----------- When using fine-grained ACLs to restrict users from accessing all domains, a logic bug in the qemu implementation of virConnectGetAllDomainStats could result in incorrect lock management of the next domain inspected after a domain that was skipped due to ACL restrictions. Impact ------ A restricted client can trigger a denial of service against a more privileged user when libvirtd goes into deadlock when trying to lock an incorrectly locked domain, or crashes when trying to unlock a domain that was not locked. Workaround ---------- Stop use of the fine grained access control mechanism, or stop trying to use access control to restrict the set of domains that an authorized client can see.
