CVE-2024-1441: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Medium severity, CVSS 5.5. EPSS: 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

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.
