RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 2 Ján Tomko 2016-01-20 08:00:20 UTC 
Fixed upstream by:
commit 4cf1c3fab138462fc9c014aee853fa17f278c5df
Author:     Peter Krempa <pkrempa>
CommitDate: 2014-08-21 15:55:07 +0200

    conf: net: Correctly switch how to format address fields
    
    When formatting the forward mode addresses or interfaces the switch was
    done based on the type of the network rather than of the type of the
    individual <interface>/<address> element. In case a user would specify
    an incorrect network type ("passhtrough") with <address> elements,
    libvirtd would crash as it would attempt to format an <interface>.
    
    Use the type of the individual element to format the XML.
