High

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions QEMU (affected versions not specified)
Description A flaw was found in the 9p passthrough filesystem (9pfs) implementation. The 9pfs server did not prohibit opening special files on the host side, potentially allowing a malicious client to escape from the exported 9p tree by creating and opening a device file in the shared folder. This issue may allow an attacker to bypass existing access restriction policies.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
