libvirt is vulnerable to Use After Free. The vulnerability is due to a race condition in the virNetClientIOEventLoop() method, where the data pointer to a stack-allocated structure is used after the stack frame is freed. If libvirt is configured with fine-grained access control, an attacker could potentially escape their limited access. Furthermore, a local unprivileged user can access virtproxyd without authenticating.
