    This security issue was fixed:

    - CVE-2015-0236: libvirt allowed remote authenticated users to obtain the
    VNC password by using the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE flag with a crafted (1)
    snapshot to the virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc interface or (2) image to
    the virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc interface. (bsc#914693)
    - CVE-2015-5313: path traversal vulnerability allowed libvirtd process to
    write arbitrary files into file system using root permissions
    (bsc#953110)

    Theses non-security issues were fixed:

    - bsc#948686: Use PAUSED state for domains that are starting up.
    - bsc#903757: Provide nodeGetSecurityModel implementation in libxl.
    - bsc#938228: Set disk type to BLOCK when driver is not tap or file.
    - bsc#948516: Fix profile_status to distinguish between errors and
    unconfined domains.
    - bsc#936524: Fix error starting lxc containers with direct interfaces.
    - bsc#921555: Fixed apparmor generated profile for PCI hostdevs.
    - bsc#899334: Include additional upstream fixes for systemd
    TerminateMachine.
    - bsc#921586: Fix security driver default settings in
    /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf.
    - bsc#921355: Fixed a number of QEMU apparmor abstraction problems.
    - bsc#911737: Additional fix for the case where security labels aren't
    automatically set.
    - bsc#914297: Allow setting the URL of an SMT server to use in place of
    SCC.
