# virsh-edit your-virt-host-nameДЇind the domainВ directive and add the option xmlns:qemu=''. The first change is to set the XML namespace for QEMU, which sounds more complex than it is. We need to configure the guest via the domain configuration file as there is no tickbox to enable what we need in virt-manager. The virsh-editВ command is intended to be a safe method of manipulating the raw XML that describes the guest, which is what we need to do in this circumstance. The guest virtual serial port should be mapped to the TCP port (TCP/1234) for use by GDB (the GNU Debugger). The guest to be the target of the debugging session is a libvirt (or KVM/QEMU) style Virtual Machine. This walkthrough assumes that the reader has a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 guest system and basic knowledge of C programming.

This blog post shows how to use live kernel debugging to determine if a system is at risk by this integer overflow flaw. Red Hat engineering sometimes backports security fixes and featuresВ from the current kernel, diverging the Red Hat Enterprise Linux kernel from upstream and causing some security issues to no longer apply. The information may no longer be current.ДЄ kernel bug announced on oss-security listВ claims to create a situation in which memory corruption can panic the system, by causing an integer used in determining the size of TCP send and receive buffers to be a negative value.
