The xenDaemonListDefinedDomains function in xen/xend_internal.c in libvirt 1.1.1 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and crash) via vectors involving the virConnectListDefinedDomains API function.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
