Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Sushy-Tools (versions before 0.21.1) and VirtualBMC (versions before 3.0.0) remove password protection from the libvirt XML domain when the boot device configuration is changed. The source does not describe what an attacker must already have or what they could do with the removed protection. The source notes that this only affects an unsupported, production-like configuration. Upgrade sushy-tools to 0.21.1 or virtualbmc to 3.0.0.
