openSUSE Security Update: qemu ______________________________________________________________________________
Announcement ID: openSUSE-SU-2013:1202-1 Rating: moderate References: #818181 Cross-References: CVE-2013-2007 Affected Products: openSUSE 12.3 openSUSE 12.2 ______________________________________________________________________________
An update that fixes one vulnerability is now available.
Description:
The qemu guest agent creates a bunch of files with insecure permissions when started in daemon mode. For now mask all file mode bits for "group" and "others" in become_daemon(). Temporarily, for compatibility reasons, stick with the 0666 file-mode in case of files newly created by the "guest-file-open" QMP call. Do so without changing the umask temporarily.
QEMU was updated to 1.1.2 on openSUSE 12.2, and 1.3.1 on openSUSE 12.3.
