Descriptions

The virDomainListPopulate function in conf/domain_conf.c in libvirt before 1.2.9 does not clean up the lock on the list of domains, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (deadlock) via a NULL value in the second parameter in the virConnectListAllDomains API command.

La función virDomainListPopulate en conf/domain_conf.c en libvirt anterior a 1.2.9 no limpia el bloqueo en la lista de dominios, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (bloqueo mutuo) a través de un valor nulo en el parámetro second en el comando de API virConnectListAllDomains.

A denial of service flaw was found in the way libvirt's virConnectListAllDomains() function computed the number of used domains. A remote attacker able to establish a read-only connection to libvirtd could use this flaw to make any domain operations within libvirt unresponsive.
