A flaw was found in libvirt. External inactive snapshots for shut-down VMs are incorrectly created as world-readable, making it possible for unprivileged users to inspect the guest OS contents. This results in an information disclosure vulnerability.

According to the versions of the libvirt packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

    A flaw was discovered in libvirt in the XML file processing. More specifically, the parsing of user     provided XML files was performed before the ACL checks. A malicious user with limited permissions could     exploit this flaw by submitting a specially crafted XML file, causing libvirt to allocate too much memory     on the host. The excessive memory consumption could lead to a libvirt process crash on the host, resulting     in a denial-of-service condition.(CVE-2025-12748)

    A flaw was found in libvirt. External inactive snapshots for shut-down VMs are incorrectly created as     world-readable, making it possible for unprivileged users to inspect the guest OS contents. This results     in an information disclosure vulnerability.(CVE-2025-13193)
