NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream virt:rhel/libvirt-daemon-driver-nodedev package and not the virt:rhel/libvirt-daemon-driver-nodedev package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A vulnerability was found in libvirt >= 4.1.0 in the virtlockd-admin.socket and virtlogd-admin.socket systemd units. A missing SocketMode configuration parameter allows any user on the host to connect using virtlockd-admin-sock or virtlogd-admin-sock and perform administrative tasks against the virtlockd and virtlogd daemons.
