3DescriptionNVD
Vulnerability in the Oracle VM VirtualBox product of Oracle Virtualization (component: Core). The supported version that is affected is 7.2.16. 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
Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.16 (Core component) contains a low-severity information disclosure flaw that requires an attacker to already hold a high-privileged logon on the host where VirtualBox runs. A successful attack yields read access to a limited subset of VirtualBox-accessible data (C:L) and, per Oracle's scope-change rating, may affect components beyond the hypervisor boundary. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires a high-privileged attacker who has an interactive logon to the infrastructure (host OS) where Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.2.16 executes - the CVSS vector's AV:L/PR:H/UI:N combination means local access with administrator/root-equivalent rights and no user interaction on the victim's part. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N) describes a locally reachable, technically simple issue that nevertheless demands high privileges on the target infrastructure and produces only partial confidentiality loss - no integrity or availability impact. … 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 the Oracle Critical Patch Update referenced at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cspusep2026.html; the input does not disclose an exact fixed build number, so consult that advisory for the specific VirtualBox release that supersedes 7.2.16 before upgrading. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
