        Libvirt Security Notice: LSN-2013-0020
        ======================================

       Summary: libvirtd crash when hot-plugging disks for qemu
                domains
   Reported on: 20131220
  Published on: 20131213
      Fixed on: 20140107
   Reported by: Alexandre M <alexandre.mclean@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Description
-----------

Several methods in the qemu block driver were accessing details
about disks associated with a domain outside of a job lock. If
another connection is adding or removing disks, the details in use
by the first connection could become stale and lead to a libvirtd
crash. Among the methods impacted, it is possible to trigger the
race from four APIs accessible from read-only clients:
virDomainBlockStats, virDomainGetBlockInfo,
virDomainGetBlockJobInfo, and virDomainGetBlockIoTune.

Impact
------

Each of the four affected APIs could be used by any user that can
connect through the read-only libvirtd UNIX domain socket. Also, if
ACLs are active, access to the affected APIs is granted to any user
with the 'read' permission on the 'domain' object, which is granted
by default to all users. As a result an unprivileged user will be
able to inflict a denial of service attack on other users of the
libvirtd daemon with higher privilege.

Workaround
----------

The impact can be mitigated by blocking access to the read-only
libvirtd UNIX domain socket, with policykit or the 'auth_unix_ro'
parameter in '/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf'. If ACLs are active, the
'read' permission should be removed from any untrusted users. This
will not prevent the crash, but will stop unprivileged users from
inflicting the denial of service on higher privileged users.
Additionally, avoiding disk hot-plug actions is sufficient to avoid
the problem.
