Libvirt · Libvirt · CVE-2013-1962
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
libvirt version 1.0.5
**Description**
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by consuming file descriptors via a large number of requests to list all volumes for a particular pool. This is related to the remoteDispatchStoragePoolListAllVolumes function in the storage pool manager.
**Recommendations**
For libvirt version 1.0.5, consider restricting access to the remoteDispatchStoragePoolListAllVolumes function until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the number of requests to list all volumes for a particular pool to prevent file descriptor consumption.
