CVE-2026-9539
Last modified
CVE-2026-9539 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.5/10 on the CVSS scale. An out-of-bounds heap read and integer underflow in the TCP urgent data handling (sosendoob) in freedesktop.org libslirp version before v4.9.2 on hypervisor host environments (e.g., QEMU) allows a privileged guest VM attacker (root or CAP_NET_RAW) to leak gigabytes of sensitive host-process heap memory via sending crafted TCP segments with manipulated URG flags and urgent pointers (ti_urp).. EPSS estimates a 0.11% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
