| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
QEMU virtio-fs (virtiofsd) (affected versions not specified)
Description
A flaw was found in the QEMU virtio-fs shared file system daemon implementation. This issue is related to incorrect default permissions. A local guest user can create files in the directories shared by virtio-fs with unintended group ownership, potentially allowing a malicious unprivileged user to gain access to resources accessible to the root group and escalate their privileges within the guest. A malicious local user in the host might also leverage this unexpected executable file created by the guest to escalate their privileges on the host system.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
