    Package : libvirt-bin
    Vulnerability : files and device nodes ownership change to kvm group
    Problem type : local
    Debian-specific: yes
    CVE ID : CVE-2013-1766
    Debian Bug : 701649

    Bastian Blank discovered that libvirtd, a daemon for management of virtual machines, network and storage, would change ownership of devices files so they would be owned by user `libvirt-qemu` and group `kvm`, which is a general purpose group not specific to libvirt, allowing unintended write access to those devices and files for the kvm group members.

    For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.8.3-5+squeeze4.

    For the testing distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.9.12-11.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 0.9.12-11.

    We recommend that you upgrade your libvirt-bin packages.
