DescriptionCVE.org

Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox product of Oracle Virtualization (component: VMSVGA device). The supported version that is affected is 7.2.8. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox executes to compromise Oracle VM VirtualBox. While the vulnerability is in Oracle VM VirtualBox, attacks may significantly impact additional products (scope change). Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle VM VirtualBox accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 3.2 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N).

AnalysisAI

Local information disclosure in Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.8 via the VMSVGA virtual graphics device allows a high-privileged guest or host attacker to read a subset of VirtualBox-accessible data across the VM isolation boundary. The scope change (S:C) in the CVSS vector indicates the vulnerability crosses the hypervisor boundary, making it relevant to multi-tenant or shared virtualization deployments despite the low base score of 3.2. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Gain high-privileged access in VirtualBox 7.2.8 guest

Confirm guest uses VMSVGA graphics controller
Exploit
Craft malicious VMSVGA device interactions
Execution
Trigger boundary enforcement failure in host emulator
Impact
Read subset of hypervisor-accessible data across VM boundary

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires local logon access to the system where Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.8 is running, with high privileges (root on Linux/macOS or Administrator on Windows) within the guest VM or on the host - confirmed by CVSS PR:H. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.2 (Low) reflects meaningful constraints: local attack vector (AV:L), high privileges required (PR:H), and impact limited to partial confidentiality (C:L) with no integrity or availability impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A root-level user inside a VirtualBox 7.2.8 guest VM configured with the VMSVGA graphics controller crafts malformed or unexpected interactions with the emulated VMSVGA device registers or command buffer, triggering a boundary enforcement failure in VirtualBox's device emulation layer on the host. The VirtualBox hypervisor process then exposes a subset of its accessible memory or internal data to the guest, allowing the attacker to read information that should not cross the VM isolation boundary. …
Remediation The primary remediation is to apply Oracle's June 2026 Critical Patch Update, documented at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspujun2026.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
