Last modified

CVE-2013-6457 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The libxlDomainGetNumaParameters function in the libxl driver (libxl/libxl_driver.c) in libvirt before 1.2.1 does not properly initialize the nodemap, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid free operation and crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via an inactive domain to the virsh numatune command.. EPSS estimates a 0.66% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
