How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 libvirt-daemon-driver-interface.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libvirt-daemon-driver-interface package and not the libvirt-daemon-driver-interface package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

libvirt version 2.3.0 and later is vulnerable to a bad default configuration of "verify-peer=no" passed to QEMU by libvirt resulting in a failure to validate SSL/TLS certificates by default.
