The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201309-18 (libvirt: Multiple vulnerabilities)
An error in the virNetMessageFree() function in rpc/virnetserverclient.c can lead to a use-after-free. Additionally, a socket leak in the remoteDispatchStoragePoolListAllVolumes command can lead to file descriptor exhaustion.
Impact :
A remote attacker could cause certain errors during an RPC connection to cause a message to be freed without being removed from the message queue, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or a Denial of Service condition. Additionally, a remote attacker could repeatedly issue the command to list all pool volumes, causing a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
