==========================================================Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1094-1            March 29, 2011
libvirt vulnerability
CVE-2011-1146
==========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 9.10
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Ubuntu 10.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 9.10:
  libvirt0                        0.7.0-1ubuntu13.3

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
  libvirt0                        0.7.5-5ubuntu27.9

Ubuntu 10.10:
  libvirt0                        0.8.3-1ubuntu14.1

In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Petr Matousek discovered that libvirt did not always honor read-only
connections. An attacker who is authorized to connect to the libvirt daemon
could exploit this to cause a denial of service via application crash.
