Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for libvirt.
CVE-2024-2494[0]:
| A flaw was found in the RPC library APIs of libvirt. The RPC server
| deserialization code allocates memory for arrays before the non-
| negative length check is performed by the C API entry points.
| Passing a negative length to the g_new0 function results in a crash
| due to the negative length being treated as a huge positive number.
| This flaw allows a local, unprivileged user to perform a denial of
| service attack by causing the libvirt daemon to crash.
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.

Salvatore
