NVD Description

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

The virBitmapParse function in util/virbitmap.c in libvirt before 1.1.2 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and crash) via a crafted bitmap, as demonstrated by a large nodeset value to numatune.
