2DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox product of Oracle Virtualization (component: Core). The supported version that is affected is 7.2.14. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with logon to the infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox executes to compromise Oracle VM VirtualBox. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker and 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 creation, deletion or modification access to critical data or all Oracle VM VirtualBox accessible data as well as unauthorized read access to a subset of Oracle VM VirtualBox accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a partial denial of service (partial DOS) of Oracle VM VirtualBox. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 7.7 (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:H/A:L).
AnalysisAI
Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.14 Core component exposes a scope-changing integrity vulnerability that allows a local unauthenticated attacker - with logon access to the infrastructure hosting the hypervisor - to critically compromise VirtualBox data when a legitimate third party interacts with the product. The attack vector is local and requires human interaction, but the CVSS scope change (S:C) indicates that a successful exploit can break VM containment and significantly impact the host system or co-resident components beyond VirtualBox itself. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The attacker must have logon access (local session) to the physical or virtual infrastructure where Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.14 is executing - this is the primary gate enforced by AV:L in the CVSS vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.7 (High) is driven primarily by the scope change and high integrity impact rather than broad attack surface, since AV:L constrains exposure to actors with local infrastructure access. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Apply Oracle's August 2026 Critical Security Patch Update, available through the Oracle advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspuaug2026.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
