CVE-2026-18917— Libvirt: integer overflow in nodegetfreepages rpc handler leading to heap buffer overflow

Quick assessment

Affected
Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

在 libvirt 中发现一个缺陷。非特权本地用户可利用 NodeGetFreePages RPC 处理程序中的整数溢出漏洞。该缺陷允许精心构造的值绕过大小检查，从而导致分配的内存缓冲区过小。随后，真实的 NUMA 节点数据可覆盖此缓冲区。该堆缓冲区溢出可能损坏 libvirt 守护进程的内存，可能导致拒绝服务（DoS）或本地权限提升。

Vulnerability Title
Libvirt: integer overflow in nodegetfreepages rpc handler leading to heap buffer overflow
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
A flaw was found in libvirt. An unprivileged local user could exploit an integer overflow vulnerability in the NodeGetFreePages RPC handler. This flaw allows crafted values to bypass a size check, leading to an undersized memory buffer. Subsequently, real NUMA node data can overwrite this buffer. This heap buffer overflow can corrupt the root libvirt daemon's memory, potentially leading to a denial of service or local privilege escalation.
