CVE-2026-48003

Public on 2026-07-01
Modified on 2026-07-01
Description
Incorrect loop bounds in vnc_update_freq result in iterating past the last row and past the last column in the VNC stats array. With suitably chosen dimensions this could be a OOB read that accesses memory beyond the VncDisplay struct that the stats array is embedded in.

Should this hit a guard page, it could trigger a guest crash. If it does not, then the VNC frequency stats will be updated with garbage.
