=head2 CVE-2015-8869
L<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/CVE-2015-8869>
This vulnerability in OCaml might affect virt tools written in the
OCaml programming language. It affects only 64 bit platforms.
Because this bug affects code generation it is difficult to predict
which precise software could be affected, and therefore our
recommendation is that you recompile libguestfs using a version of the
OCaml compiler where this bug has been fixed (or ask your Linux distro
to do the same).
