Descriptions

libvirt before 1.2.12 allow remote authenticated users to obtain the VNC password by using the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE flag with a crafted (1) snapshot to the virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc interface or (2) image to the virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc interface.

libvirt anterior a 1.2.12 permite a usuarios remotos autenticados obtener la contraseña VNC mediante el uso del indicador VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE con (1) una instantánea manipulada a la interfaz virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc o (2) una imagen manipulada a la interfaz virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc.

It was discovered that the virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc() and virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc() functions did not sufficiently limit the usage of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE flag when fine-grained ACLs were enabled. A remote attacker able to establish a connection to libvirtd could use this flaw to obtain certain sensitive information from the domain XML file.
