Currently, both red_channel_pipes_add_type() and red_channel_pipes_add_empty_msg() use plaing RING_FOREACH() which is not safe versus removals from the ring within the loop body. Yet, when (network) error does occur, the current item could be removed from the ring down the road and the assertion in RING_FOREACH()'s ring_next() could trip, causing the process containing the spice server to abort. An user able to initiate spice connection to the guest could use this flaw to crash the guest.
