| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
libvirtd versions prior to 4.10.1
libvirtd versions prior to 5.4.1
Description
The issue is related to the
virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc() API, which has access control errors. This allows an attacker with access to the libvirtd socket to probe the existence of arbitrary files, cause denial of service, or execute arbitrary programs by specifying an arbitrary path that would be accessed with the permissions of the libvirtd process.Recommendations
For libvirtd versions prior to 4.10.1, update to version 4.10.1 or later.
For libvirtd versions prior to 5.4.1, update to version 5.4.1 or later.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc() API until a patch is available.Fix
DoS
Improper Access Control
Missing Authorization
Path traversal
