An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-8168 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: qt. 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-2026-8168/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8168/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-8168","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8168/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-8168","record":{"aliases":["AZL-110127","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-8168","GHSA-4f98-277j-6qvj","RHSA-2026:80569","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-8168"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Qt SVG library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can crash applications using the Qt SVG module by providing a crafted SVG file with deeply nested elements, causing stack exhaustion.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Qt","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-674","name":"Uncontrolled Recursion"}],"description":"Uncontrolled recursion in the SVG parser and renderer of the Qt SVG module (QtSvg) in Qt Group Qt allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash via stack exhaustion) via a crafted SVG file with deeply nested elements.","ecosystems":["Red Hat:hummingbird:1"],"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":"Denial-of-service vulnerability in the SVG parser and renderer impacts Qt","id":"CVE-2026-8168","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"ExtremeXOS Debug-Mode Privilege Escalation via Weak PRNG","id":"CVE-2026-8169"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:hummingbird:1","fixed":["0:6.11.2-1.1.hum1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"qt6","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/qt6","source":"RHSA-2026:80569"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:hummingbird:1","fixed":["0:6.11.2-1.1.hum1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"qt6-filesystem","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/qt6-filesystem","source":"RHSA-2026:80569"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:hummingbird:1","fixed":["0:6.11.2-1.1.hum1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"qt6-rpm-macros","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/qt6-rpm-macros","source":"RHSA-2026:80569"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:hummingbird:1","fixed":["0:6.11.2-1.1.hum1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"qt6-srpm-macros","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/qt6-srpm-macros","source":"RHSA-2026:80569"}],"prev":{"headline":"Reflected XSS in theWP's News Theme V8","id":"CVE-2026-8167"},"products":["qt"],"published":"2026-10-19","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Red Hat","prefix":"RHSA"},{"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":"2026-10-19","vendors":["qt"]},"summary":"Attackers can crash applications using the Qt SVG module by providing a crafted SVG file with deeply nested elements, causing stack exhaustion.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-8168/"}
