Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

The virDomainListPopulate function in conf/domain_conf.c in libvirt before 1.2.9 does not clean up the lock on the list of domains, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (deadlock) via a NULL value in the second parameter in the virConnectListAllDomains API command.
