Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for libvirt.

CVE-2024-1441[0]:
| An off-by-one error flaw was found in the
| udevListInterfacesByStatus() function in libvirt when the number of
| interfaces exceeds the size of the `names` array. This issue can be
| reproduced by sending specially crafted data to the libvirt daemon,
| allowing an unprivileged client to perform a denial of service
| attack by causing the libvirt daemon to crash.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
