CVE-2014-3559: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization

Low severity, CVSS 3.5. EPSS: 1.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The oVirt storage backend in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.4 does not wipe memory snapshots when deleting a VM, even when wipe-after-delete (WAD) is configured for the VM's disk, which allows remote authenticated users with certain credentials to read portions of the deleted VM's memory and obtain sensitive information via an uninitialized storage volume.

Affected products

• Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization: version 3.4 only
