This study focuses on the strategies used by the "xz backdoor", an extremely
complex piece of malware that contains its own x64 disassembler inside of it 
to find critical locations in your code and hijacks it by swapping out your 
code with its own as it runs.  Because this a machine-code based attack,
all code written in any program language can be attacked and is vulnerable.

Instead of targeting sshd directly, the xz 
backdoor injects itself in the parent systemd process then hijacks the 
GNU Dynamic Linker (ld), before sshd is even started or libcrypto.so is

Changing a KVM (libvirtd) network configuration

The documentation recommends you do this using virsh net update, but you'll need to read it very carefully to figure out exactly how -- because they provide you with only a single example to work with.

Only the following virtual network components can be changed using net-update:

ip-dhcp-host
ip-dhcp-range (add/delete only, no modify)
forward-interface (add/delete only)
