The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201612-10 (libvirt: Directory traversal)

    Normally, only privileged users can coerce libvirt into creating or       opening existing files using the virStorageVol APIs; and such users       already have full privilege to create any domain XML.
    But in the case of fine-grained ACLs, it is feasible that a user can be       granted storage_vol:create but not domain:write, and it violates       assumptions if such a user can abuse libvirt to access files outside of       the storage pool.
  Impact :

    When fine-grained Access Control Lists (ACL) are in effect, an       authenticated local user with storage_vol:create permission but without       domain:write permission maybe able to create or access arbitrary files       outside of the storage pool.
  Workaround :

    Don&rsquo;t make use of fine-grained Access Control Lists (ACL) in libvirt;
      In Gentoo, libvirt&rsquo;s ACL support is disable by default unless you       enable the &ldquo;policykit&rdquo; USE flag.

The remote MiracleLinux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2016-880:04 advisory.

    Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities     of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). The main package includes     the libvirtd server exporting the virtualization support.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2015-5160
    ** RESERVED **     This candidate has been reserved by an organization or individual that     will use it when announcing a new security problem.  When the     candidate has been publicized, the details for this candidate will be     provided.
    CVE-2015-5313     Directory traversal vulnerability in the     virStorageBackendFileSystemVolCreate function in     storage/storage_backend_fs.c in libvirt, when fine-grained Access     Control Lists (ACL) are in effect, allows local users with     storage_vol:create ACL but not domain:write permission to write to     arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a volume name.
    CVE-2016-5008     libvirt before 2.0.0 improperly disables password checking when the     password on a VNC server is set to an empty string, which allows     remote attackers to bypass authentication and establish a VNC session     by connecting to the server.
    The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version: libvirt (2.0.0).

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-2867-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that libvirt incorrectly handled the firewall rules on bridge networks when the daemon     was restarted. This could result in an unintended firewall configuration. This issue only applied to     Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (CVE-2011-4600)

    Peter Krempa discovered that libvirt incorrectly handled locking when certain ACL checks failed. A local     attacker could use this issue to cause libvirt to stop responding, resulting in a denial of service. This     issue only applied to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2014-8136)

    Luyao Huang discovered that libvirt incorrectly handled VNC passwords in shapshot and image files. A     remote authenticated user could use this issue to possibly obtain VNC passwords. This issue only affected     Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2015-0236)

    Han Han discovered that libvirt incorrectly handled volume creation failure when used with NFS. A remote     authenticated user could use this issue to cause libvirt to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This     issue only applied to Ubuntu 15.10. (CVE-2015-5247)

    Ossi Herrala and Joonas Kuorilehto discovered that libvirt incorrectly performed storage pool name     validation. A remote authenticated user could use this issue to bypass ACLs and gain access to unintended     files. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 15.04 and Ubuntu 15.10. (CVE-2015-5313)

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Directory traversal vulnerability in the virStorageBackendFileSystemVolCreate function in     storage/storage_backend_fs.c in libvirt, when fine-grained Access Control Lists (ACL) are in effect,     allows local users with storage_vol:create ACL but not domain:write permission to write to arbitrary files     via a .. (dot dot) in a volume name. (CVE-2015-5313)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Libvit development team reports :

Various virStorageVol* API operate on user-supplied volume names by concatenating the volume name to the pool location. Note that the virStoragePoolListVolumes API, when used on a storage pool backed by a directory in a file system, will only list volumes immediately in that directory (there is no traversal into subdirectories). However, other APIs such as virStorageVolCreateXML were not checking if a potential volume name represented one of the volumes that could be returned by virStoragePoolListVolumes; because they were not rejecting the use of '/' in a volume name.

Because no checking was done on volume names, a user could supply a potential volume name of something like '../../../etc/passwd' to attempt to access a file not belonging to the storage pool. When fine-grained Access Control Lists (ACL) are in effect, a user with storage_vol:create ACL permission but lacking domain:write permission could thus abuse virStorageVolCreateXML and similar APIs to gain access to files not normally permitted to that user. Fortunately, it appears that the only APIs that could leak information or corrupt files require read-write connection to libvirtd; and when ACLs are not in use (the default without any further configuration), a user with read-write access can already be considered to have full access to the machine, and without an escalation of privilege there is no security problem.

An update for libvirt is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

The libvirt library contains a C API for managing and interacting with the virtualization capabilities of Linux and other operating systems.
In addition, libvirt provides tools for remote management of virtualized systems.

The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version:
libvirt (2.0.0). (BZ#830971, BZ#1286679)

Security Fix(es) :

* It was found that the libvirt daemon, when using RBD (RADOS Block Device), leaked private credentials to the process list. A local attacker could use this flaw to perform certain privileged operations within the cluster. (CVE-2015-5160)

* A path-traversal flaw was found in the way the libvirt daemon handled filesystem names for storage volumes. A libvirt user with privileges to create storage volumes and without privileges to create and modify domains could possibly use this flaw to escalate their privileges. (CVE-2015-5313)

* It was found that setting a VNC password to an empty string in libvirt did not disable all access to the VNC server as documented, instead it allowed access with no authentication required. An attacker could use this flaw to access a VNC server with an empty VNC password without any authentication. (CVE-2016-5008)
