Descriptions
libvirt before 2.2 includes Ceph credentials on the qemu command line when using RADOS Block Device (aka RBD), which allows local users to obtain sensitive information via a process listing.
libvirt en versiones anteriores a la 2.2 incluye las credenciales de Ceph en la línea de comandos qemu cuando se utiliza RADOS Block Device (también conocido como RBD), lo que permite a los usuarios locales obtener información sensible mediante un listado de procesos.
It was found that the libvirt daemon, when using RBD (RADOS Block Device), leaked private credentials to the process list. A local attacker could use this flaw to perform certain privileged operations within the cluster.
The libvirt library contains a C API for managing and interacting with the virtualization capabilities of Linux and other operating systems.
