Amazon Linux 2 Security Advisory: ALAS-2020-1557
Advisory Release Date: 2020-11-09 17:10 Pacific
Advisory Updated Date: 2020-11-11 17:38 Pacific
Severity:
Medium
Issue Overview:
A flaw was found in the way the libvirtd daemon issued the 'suspend' command to a QEMU guest-agent running inside a guest, where it holds a monitor job while issuing the 'suspend' command to a guest-agent. A malicious guest-agent may use this flaw to block the libvirt daemon indefinitely, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2019-20485)
A NULL pointer dereference was found in the libvirt API responsible for fetching a storage pool based on its target path. In more detail, this flaw affects storage pools created without a target path such as network-based pools like gluster and RBD. Unprivileged users with a read-only connection could abuse this flaw to crash the libvirt daemon, resulting in a potential denial of service. (CVE-2020-10703)
