Updated libvirt packages that fix various bugs are now available.
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of
recent versions of Linux, and other operating systems.
These updated packages fix the following bugs:
* the xend_parse_sexp_desc() function used a fixed sized 4k buffer, which
could have been overgrown if the domain description was very complex. For
example, running the "virt-install" command with a large set of network
definitions, may have caused the XML description to exceed the 4k buffer.
When the buffer is re-allocated, libvirt tries to free the old buffer
address, resulting in a segmentation fault. As well, another buffer-growth
problem in libvirt has been resolved.
* a potential crash when applications use libvirt has been resolved.
Users of libvirt are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
