Summary
Updated libvirt packages fix security vulnerability
Details

It was found that libvirtd leaked file descriptors when listing all volumes for a particular pool. A remote attacker able to establish a read-only connection to libvirtd could use this flaw to cause libvirtd to consume all available file descriptors, preventing other users from using libvirtd services (such as starting a new guest) until libvirtd is restarted (CVE-2013-1962).
