Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.

Peter Krempa cc19d1c08f CVE-2014-3633: qemu: blkiotune: Use correct definition when looking up disk
Live definition was used to look up the disk index while persistent one
was indexed leading to a crash in qemuDomainGetBlockIoTune. Use the
correct def and report a nice error.

Unfortunately it's accessible via read-only connection, though it can
only crash libvirtd in the cases where the guest is hot-plugging disks
without reflecting those changes to the persistent definition.  So
avoiding hotplug, or doing hotplug where persistent is always modified
alongside live definition, will avoid the out-of-bounds access.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
