Security Fix(es):

handling. An authenticated attacker could send crafted messages to the
SPICE server causing a heap overflow leading to a crash or possible code
execution. (CVE-2016-9577)

* A vulnerability was discovered in SPICE in the server's protocol
handling. An attacker able to connect to the SPICE server could send
crafted messages which would cause the process to crash. (CVE-2016-9578)

These issues were discovered by Frediano Ziglio (Red Hat).

Bug Fix(es):

* Previously the name of the "rhevm-appliance" RPM contained only a
timestamp, without versioning information. In this release, the Red Hat
Virtualization release will now be included in the name of the
