HighMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
libvirt versions prior to 1.3.1
Description
The issue allows guest agents with a read-only (RO) connection to make virDomainGetTime API calls, which were supposed to require a read-write (RW) connection. This is a distinct issue from other known vulnerabilities.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 1.3.1, update to version 1.3.1 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the virDomainGetTime API to minimize the risk of exploitation.
