# CVE-2026-17588: qemu vulnerability CVE-2026-17588 is fixed in 32 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-17588, released October 6, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-17588 - Priority: High - CVSS: n/a (important) - EPSS: n/a - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Sep 29, 2026 ## Description Package updates are available for Amazon Linux 2023 that fix the following vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-93834: A use-after-free vulnerability was found in QEMU's 9pfs subsystem. A race condition between the main thread and a worker thread when processing concurrent Tlcreate and Twalk requests allows a malicious guest user to craft a fid path containing stale heap data, bypassing directory traversal restrictions and escaping the shared directory boundary. This can lead to arbitrary host file read/write and code execution (VM escape) as the QEMU process user. CVE-2026-84788: io/channel-socket: do not treat a zero length write as an error CVE-2026-81627: A flaw was found in QEMU. The VAPIC setup hypercall in hw/i386/vapic.c does not validate that the writable RAM alias remains within the option ROM window. A privileged guest user on a Q35/KVM machine can position this alias over locked SMRAM, bypassing chipset D_LCK protection and injecting code into System Management Mode memory.
