incus: Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager
CVE-2026-63125 is fixed in incus on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-63125, released August 1, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Urgent.
Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. Prior to version 7.3.0, an unprivileged, project-confined Incus user (a non-admin TLS/RBAC identity with `can_create_images` and `can_create_instances`) can execute arbitrary code as root on the host. A crafted image ships `backup.yaml` as a symlink to a host file. When the root daemon writes the instance's backup file, it follows the symlink. Version 7.3.0 patches the issue.
