CVE-2011-1146
libvirt.c in the API in Red Hat libvirt 0.8.8 does not properly restrict operations in a read-only connection, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (host OS crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a (1) virNodeDeviceDettach,…
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.53%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
