* CVE-2024-8235: Crash of ``virtinterfaced`` via ``virConnectListInterfaces()``
A refactor of the code fetching the list of interfaces for multiple APIs
introduced corner case on platforms where allocating 0 bytes of memory
results in a NULL pointer.
This corner case would lead to a NULL-pointer dereference and subsequent
crash of ``virtinterfaced`` if ``virConnectListInterfaces()`` is called
requesting 0 networks to be filled.
The bug was introduced in libvirt-10.4.0
