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.
