Package: libvirt0
Version: 1.0.2-3
Severity: grave

The lxc support in libvirt mounts the root cgroups within the container.
Per default the guest have the permission needed to move processes out
of it's own cgroup into the root cgroup. This can evade restrictions
imposed by the device cgroup or resource restrictions.
