openEuler update for libvirt

1) Use-after-free

EUVDB-ID: #VU58358

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 2.2 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2021-3975

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error in the qemuMonitorUnregister() function in qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF. An unprivileged client with a read-only connection can trigger the use-after-free error by calling the virConnectGetAllDomainStats API and crash the application.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's repository.
