Description Johannes Segitz 2018-02-08 11:13:27 UTC

CVE-2018-6764
via https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1541444

Not a lot of details. I suspect this is via
lxcConnectDomainXMLFromNative -> lxcParseConfigString -> lxcConvertNetworkSettings -> lxcNetworkWalkCallback -> virSocketAddrParse
which would mean >= SLE 12 is affected

Comment 1 Cédric Bosdonnat 2018-02-08 15:25:38 UTC

libvirt-lxc is mine

Comment 2 Cédric Bosdonnat 2018-02-08 16:08:43 UTC

Fix is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-February/msg00239.html

Comment 3 Cédric Bosdonnat 2018-02-09 16:39:13 UTC

Fix stacked for the next maintenance update for 12-SP2 and 12-SP3. The libvirt LXC driver is not supported on SLE 11, thus I haven't backported the patch to this version.

Fix will be submitted to factory and SLE-15 soon.
