Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Patrick Riehecky Subject: Security ERRATA Low: libguestfs on SL6.x x86_64 Comments: To: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. Synopsis: Low: libguestfs security, bug fix, and enhancement update Issue Date: 2012-06-20 CVE Numbers: CVE-2012-2690 libguestfs is a library for accessing and modifying guest disk images. It was found that editing files with virt-edit left said files in a world-readable state (and did not preserve the file owner or Security-Enhanced Linux context). If an administrator on the host used virt-edit to edit a file inside a guest, the file would be left with world-readable permissions. This could lead to unprivileged guest usersaccessing files they would otherwise be unable to. (CVE-2012-2690) These updated libguestfs packages include numerous bug fixes and enhancements. Users of libguestfs are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these issues and add these enhancements.
