CVE-2026-47243

Kata Containers is an open source project focusing on a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines VMs that perform like containers. Prior to 3.31.0, the runtime-rs standalone virtio-fs path is vulnerable to a guest-root to host-root escape. In this configuration, Kata runs the host...

CVE-2026-64676

Kata Containers versions before 4.0.0: the kata-agent is vulnerable to an authorization bypass in confidential-guest memory management. In Confidential Containers deployments, the agent enforces an OPA/Rego-based AgentPolicy to authorize every ttRPC call; two mem-agent–related ttRPC methods miss ...

CVE-2026-64676 Kata Containers: Unauthorized mem-agent ttRPC methods let an untrusted host tamper with confidential-guest memory

Kata Containers is an open source implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines VMs that perform like containers. In versions prior to 4.0.0, the kata-agent is vulnerable to an authorization bypass in confidential-guest memory management. In Confidential Containers CoCo deployments, the kata-age...

CVE-2026-50540

Kata Containers is an open source project focusing on a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines VMs that perform like containers. Prior to version 4.0.0, kata-runtime is vulnerable to host code execution via an unvalidated configuration path annotation. The runtime accepts an...

CVE-2026-50540 Kata Containers: Config Path Annotation Arbitrary File Loading

Kata Containers is an open source project focusing on a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines VMs that perform like containers. Prior to version 4.0.0, kata-runtime is vulnerable to host code execution via an unvalidated configuration path annotation. The runtime accepts an...

CVE-2026-50540

Kata Containers CVE-2026-50540 affects kata-runtime prior to 4.0.0, where an unvalidated io.katacontainers.config_path pod annotation lets a pod user load a host TOML file. This enables selecting attacker-controlled binaries (hypervisor or virtio-fs daemon) on the host, leading to root code execu...

SUSE CVE-2026-44210

Kata Containers is an open source project focusing on a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines VMs that perform like containers. Versions prior to 3.31.0 ship with a default configuration that allows pod creators to inject arbitrary command-line arguments into the virtiofsd proce...

CVE-2026-44210

A flaw was found in Kata Containers, an open-source project that provides lightweight virtual machines VMs for containers. A user with privileges to create pods can inject malicious command-line arguments into the virtiofsd process, which manages shared file systems. This injection allows an...

CVE-2026-44210

Summary: CVE-2026-44210 describes a VM escape in Kata Containers prior to 3.31.0 where default pod annotations enable virtiofsd extra args and kernel params, allowing an attacker with pod-creation privileges to inject arguments that override the virtiofsd shared directory to the host root. This c...

CVE-2026-50540

A flaw was found in Kata Containers, affecting both its Rust and Go runtimes. An authenticated pod user can exploit this by setting the io.katacontainers.configpath annotation to an arbitrary configuration file on the host. This allows the attacker to control privileged runtime settings, leading ...
