Summary
Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) offers a full virtualization solution for Linux on numerous hardware platforms. The virt:rhel module contains packages which provide user-space components used to run virtual machines using KVM. The packages also provide APIs for managing and interacting with the virtualized systems.
Security Fix:
* virt:libvirt: stack use-after-free in virNetClientIOEventLoop (CVE-2024-4418)
Bug fix:
* virsh destroy with --graceful destroyed a paused guest (qemu process paused by SIGSTOP) (JIRA:Rocky Linux-36064)

Libvirt: stack use-after-free in virnetclientioeventloop()
A race condition leading to a stack use-after-free flaw was found in libvirt. Due to a bad assumption in the virNetClientIOEventLoop() method, the `data` pointer to a stack-allocated virNetClientIOEventData structure ended up being used in the virNetClientIOE…
