Title:DSA-2650-2 -- libvirt -- files and device nodes ownership change to kvm group
Description:Bastian Blank discovered that libvirtd, a daemon for management of virtual machines, network and storage, would change ownership of devices files so they would be owned by user libvirt-qemu and group kvm, which is a general purpose group not specific to libvirt, allowing unintended write access to those devices and files for the kvm group members.
