Hello Steve, vendors.

Description:
Regression introduced in commit d6623003 (v0.8.8) - using the
wrong sizeof operand meant that security manager private data
was overlaying the allowDiskFOrmatProbing member of struct
_virSecurityManager. This reopens disk probing, which was
supposed to be prevented by the solution to CVE-2010-2238.

Please use CVE-2011-2178

Thanks.
