Description Andrej Nemec 2017-08-31 13:47:58 UTC

A local non-root user with access to the D-Bus system bus can call the
CheckConfig method implemented in the tcmu-runner daemon via
handler_qcow.so and exploit an information leak by passing in arbitrary
filenames to check.

This allows a local user to check for the existence of root owned files,
which might enable more serious security issues in combination with
other security flaws in a system.
