    Summary: Updated libvirt packages fix CVE-2014-8136

    Details: Updated libvirt packages fix security vulnerability: The qemuDomainMigratePerform and qemuDomainMigrateFinish2 functions in qemu/qemu_driver.c in libvirt do not unlock the domain when an ACL check fails, which allow local users to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors (CVE-2014-8136).
