"The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the
AXSA:2009-33:01 advisory.
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interract with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and
other OSes).
Fixed bugs:
CVE-2008-5086
Multiple methods in libvirt 0.3.2 through 0.5.1 do not check if a connection is read-only, which allows
local users to bypass intended access restrictions and perform administrative actions.
CVE-2009-0036
Buffer overflow in the proxyReadClientSocket function in proxy/libvirt_proxy.c in libvirt_proxy 0.5.1
might allow local users to gain privileges by sending a portion of the header of a virProxyPacket packet,
and then sending the remainder of the packet with crafted values in the header, related to use of
uninitialized memory in a validation check.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.
