Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: RHV-H security update (redhat-virtualization-host) 4.3.21
Notes
Topic
An update for redhat-release-virtualization-host and redhat-virtualization-host is now available for Red Hat Virtualization 4 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
Details
The redhat-virtualization-host packages provide the Red Hat Virtualization Host.
These packages include redhat-release-virtualization-host. Red Hat
Virtualization Hosts (RHVH) are installed using a special build of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux with only the packages required to host virtual machines. RHVH features a Cockpit user interface for monitoring the host's resources and
performing administrative tasks.
Security Fix(es):
* polkit: Local privilege escalation in pkexec due to incorrect handling of argument vector (CVE-2021-4034)
* samba: Active Directory (AD) domain user could become root on domain members (CVE-2020-25717)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

The pkexec application is a setuid tool designed to allow unprivileged users to run commands as privileged users according predefined policies.
