1 low-priority security issue in bookworm low

There is 1 open security issue in bookworm.

1 issue left for the package maintainer to handle:
  • CVE-2025-12748: (needs triaging) A flaw was discovered in libvirt in the XML file processing. More specifically, the parsing of user provided XML files was performed before the ACL checks. A malicious user with limited permissions could exploit this flaw by submitting a specially crafted XML file, causing libvirt to allocate too much memory on the host. The excessive memory consumption could lead to a libvirt process crash on the host, resulting in a denial-of-service condition.

You can find information about how to handle this issue in the security team's documentation.

Created: 2025-11-12 Last update: 2026-05-19 04:30
Issues found with some translations low

Automatic checks made by the Debian l10n team found some issues with the translations contained in this package. You should check the l10n status report for more information.

Issues can be things such as missing translations, problematic translated strings, outdated PO files, unknown languages, etc.

Created: 2026-04-23 Last update: 2026-04-23 12:32
