CentOS 9 : libvirt-9.5.0-5.el9

medium Nessus Plugin ID 191224

Language:

Synopsis

The remote CentOS host is missing a security update for libvirt.

Description

The remote CentOS Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the libvirt-9.5.0-5.el9 build changelog.

 - A flaw was found in libvirt. The virStoragePoolObjListSearch function does not return a locked pool as expected, resulting in a race condition and denial of service when attempting to lock the same object from another thread. This issue could allow clients connecting to the read-only socket to crash the libvirt daemon. (CVE-2023-3750)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the CentOS 9 Stream libvirt package.
