Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: virt-manager security, bug fix, and enhancement update

Notes

Topic
An update for virt-manager is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Low. 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.
Details
Virtual Machine Manager (virt-manager) is a graphical tool for administering virtual machines for KVM, Xen, and Linux Containers (LXC). The virt-manager utility uses the libvirt API and can start, stop, add or remove virtualized devices, connect to a graphical or serial console, and view resource usage statistics for existing virtualized guests on local or remote machines. The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: virt-manager (2.2.1). (BZ#1727881) Security Fix(es): * virt-install: unattended option leaks password via command line argument (CVE-2019-10183) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section. Additional Changes: For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.1 Release Notes linked from the References section.
