CVE-2026-115375
validatingZero is analyzing and reversing it now.GHSA-f963-f2v2-v6x5 ↗EUVD-2026-108298 ↗
description
Incus versions 7.0.0 through 7.0.1 and 7.1.0 through 7.4.x mishandle volume names supplied in instance backup metadata. An attacker with permission to create instances may import a malicious backup and cause files or directories to be written on the host, potentially resulting in host compromise.
Still under analysis: more detail becomes available as the pipeline runs.
mitigation
Upgrade the 7.0 release line to Incus 7.0.2 or later, or the 7.1 release line to Incus 7.5.0 or later. Until upgraded, restrict instance-creation and backup-import permissions to trusted administrators.
fixed in 7.0.2, 7.5.0
