CVE-2026-42487

7.9 · HIGH
Published Jun 18, 2026 CWE-362

Overview

CVE-2026-42487 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on June 18, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.9 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.9, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

HVM guest I/O port accesses are subject to either emulation or at least

translation. Translations are managed by the device model (via

XEN_DOMCTL_ioport_mapping), and hence the linked list used may changed

at any time. Traversal of those lists (while handling guest I/O port

accesses) therefore needs synchronizing with updates, which was missing

so far.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
