Published Jun 26, 2026CWE-770EPSS 0.13%

Overview

CVE-2026-13322 is a low-severity vulnerability. It was published on June 26, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.8 (LOW).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 3.8, rated LOW. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

A flaw was found in KubeVirt's downward metrics virtio-serial server. The server reads guest requests using textproto.Reader.ReadLine(), which buffers input indefinitely until a newline character is received, with no length limit or read deadline. A user with access to a VM guest that has the downward metrics virtio-serial device configured can write a continuous byte stream to the device, causing unbounded memory allocation in the virt-handler process until it is OOM-killed.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
