An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-6426 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6426/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6426/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-6426","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6426/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-6426","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-6426","ECHO-dd45-764e-65f0","GHSA-f3xx-69mr-6rx6","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-6426"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"QEMU virtualization","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An integer type mismatch in QEMU's vhost inflight migration allows out-of-bounds writes, potentially causing crashes or code execution during VM migration.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-681","name":"Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types"}],"description":"A type mismatch vulnerability was found in QEMU's vhost inflight migration VMState handling. The destination buffer size is stored as a uint64_t but read by the VMS_VBUFFER load path as a signed int32_t. On little-endian hosts, a crafted incoming migration state with bit 31 set causes the value to be interpreted as negative and then implicitly converted to a very large size_t, leading qemu_get_buffer() to copy migration-stream data beyond the bounds of the mmap-backed inflight region.\n\nThis can result in a crash of the QEMU process or memory corruption. Exploitation requires control of the migration producer or write access to the migration channel, combined with a destination configured to use vhost inflight migration.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Qemu-kvm: vhost inflight migration vmstate integer type mismatch causes out-of-bounds access","id":"CVE-2026-6426","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"integer_overflow","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"a3 Lazy Load \u003c= 2.7.6 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Video Element","id":"CVE-2026-6427"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use-after-free vulnerability in ESET security products for Linux","id":"CVE-2026-6424"},"products":["Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9","Red Hat Enterprise Linux for NVIDIA 26","Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4"],"published":"2026-08-10","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-18","vendors":["Red Hat"]},"summary":"An integer type mismatch in QEMU's vhost inflight migration allows out-of-bounds writes, potentially causing crashes or code execution during VM migration.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-6426/"}
