Moderate: virt:rhel and virt-devel:rhel security, bug fix, and enhancement update
Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) offers a full virtualization solution for Linux on numerous hardware platforms. The virt:rhel module contains packages which provide user-space components used to run virtual machines using KVM. The packages also provide APIs for managing and interacting with the virtualized systems. The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: qemu-kvm (6.2.0), libvirt (8.0.0), libvirt-python (8.0.0), perl-Sys-Virt (8.0.0), seabios (1.15.0), libtpms (0.9.1).
