CVE-2026-115449A flaw was found in libslirp
Executive summaryA flaw in libslirp, the user-mode networking library used by some virtual machine setups, can leak the host's real IP address to a guest system. Red Hat rates it as low severity, with a CVSS v3 base score of 3.5 in its own assessment, and the flaw only occurs under specific conditions. The advisory describes the normal ICMP path as unaffected and recommends ensuring the QEMU user's group is in ping_group_range, or avoiding user-mode networking. Technical summaryThe issue is a CWE-200 information exposure caused by an ICMP echo reply length that is not updated to match the data received from the host. It occurs only when the SOCK_DGRAM ICMP socket is unavailable and libslirp falls back to a raw socket, such as when ping_group_range is restricted, and the guest pings a nonexistent host on the hypervisor's LAN. The advisory says the attack vector is network with high complexity and low privileges required, and the Red Hat CVSS vector is CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N. The advisory says the leak is limited to 4 bytes of host IP address and not arbitrary heap memory. Mitigations are to include the QEMU process user's GID in net.ipv4.ping_group_range or to use --net none or virtio-net with a TAP backend.
