Who When What Removed Added

Doc Text Cause: Libvirt did not properly handle domain XML passed to
virDomainRestoreFlags or virDomainSaveImageDefineXML APIs.

Consequence: Libvirt would drop any passwords from the XML.

Fix: The code which updates XML configuration of a saved domain now uses
correct internal flags to avoid dropping passwords.

Result: Users can change an XML of a saved domain without the risk of losing
passwords.

Fix: The code which updates XML configuration of a saved domain now uses

Result: Users can change an XML of a saved domain without the risk of losing
passwords.
Prior to this update, the libvirt service in some cases removed the password for the SPICE client from the domain XML file after modifying the file and restoring the domain. As a consequence, anyone was able to connect to the SPICE client without password authentication. With this update, the code that updates XML configuration of a saved domain uses correct internal options to avoid removing passwords. As a result, users can change the XML file of a saved domain without the risk of losing set-up passwords.
