NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libvirt package and not the libvirt package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Double free vulnerability in the qemuAgentGetVCPUs function in qemu/qemu_agent.c in libvirt 1.0.6 through 1.1.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a cpu count request, as demonstrated by the "virsh vcpucount dom --guest" command.
