CVE-2026-13201

A flaw was found in KubeVirt's safepath package used by virt-handler. The OpenAtNoFollow function uses OPATH|ONOFOLLOW to obtain a file descriptor to a path leaf, but downstream operations resolve the path via /proc/self/fd/N using link-following syscalls. When the leaf is a symlink, the kernel...

CVE-2026-13201

CVE-2026-13201 concerns KubeVirt’s safepath package, where OpenAtNoFollow uses O_PATH|O_NOFOLLOW to obtain a descriptor for a path leaf, but downstream helpers access paths via /proc/self/fd/N. If the leaf is a symlink, the kernel dereferences it, bypassing intended no-follow protection. An attac...
