Synopsis
========
Libvirt is vulnerable to directory traversal when using Access Control
Lists (ACL).
Background
==========
libvirt is a C toolkit for manipulating virtual machines.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 app-emulation/libvirt < 1.2.21-r1 >= 1.2.21-r1
Description
===========
Normally, only privileged users can coerce libvirt into creating or
opening existing files using the virStorageVol APIs; and such users
already have full privilege to create any domain XML.
But in the case of fine-grained ACLs, it is feasible that a user can be
granted storage_vol:create but not domain:write, and it violates
assumptions if such a user can abuse libvirt to access files outside of
the storage pool.
Impact
======
When fine-grained Access Control Lists (ACL) are in effect, an
authenticated local user with storage_vol:create permission but without
domain:write permission maybe able to create or access arbitrary files
outside of the storage pool.
Workaround
==========
Don't make use of fine-grained Access Control Lists (ACL) in libvirt;
In Gentoo, libvirt's ACL support is disable by default unless you
enable the "policykit" USE flag.
Resolution
==========
All libvirt users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=app-emulation/libvirt-1.2.21-r1"
References
==========
