CVE-2026-62424 Details
Description
[This CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] The directory and Rock Ridge / SUSP walk in libfsimage's iso9660 driver derives several lengths directly from attacker-controlled on-disk fields without validating them: * The directory loop itself assumes a good record length. This is CVE-2026-42494. * The calculation of the System Use area may underflow. This is CVE-2026-42495. * The Rock Ridge extension loop assumes a good (inner) record length. This is CVE-2026-62423. * The Rock Ridge NM record processing assumes a good entry length. This is CVE-2026-62424. * The Rock Ridge CE record processing assumes a good size and offset. This is CVE-2026-62425.
A buffer overrun vulnerability has been identified in the Rock Ridge NM record processing of libfsimage's iso9660 driver in Xen. This vulnerability arises because the processing assumes a valid entry length derived from attacker-controlled on-disk fields, leading to potential exploitation.
Applying the patch available in the Xen Security Advisory XSA-497 resolves this vulnerability. For guests known to be 64-bit and using grub2, pvgrub can be used as an alternative to pygrub. Additionally, running only HVM or PVH guests will avoid this vulnerability.
