CVE-2011-2512
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.8)—
The virtio_queue_notify in qemu-kvm 0.14.0 and earlier does not properly validate the virtqueue number, which allows guest users to cause a denial of service (guest crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a negative number in the Queue Notify field of the Virtio Header, which bypasses a signed comparison.
CVSS
- Versión: 2.0
- Vector: AV:A/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
- Puntuación base: 5.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 1.90%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 79
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
