CVE-2020-25651
CVSS v3.1
6.4
Medium
| Vector | AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:L |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and prior
Description
A flaw was found in the SPICE file transfer protocol, allowing file data from the host system to end up in the client connection of an illegitimate local user in the VM system. This could also interrupt active file transfers from other users, resulting in a denial of service. The highest threat from this issue is to data confidentiality as well as system availability.
Recommendations
For spice-vdagent versions 0.20 and prior, update to a version later than 0.20 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the SPICE file transfer protocol to minimize the risk of exploitation.
