CVE-2026-23560

Estado: AplazadaCrítica (9.4)—

[This CNA information record relates to multiple CVEs; the text explains which aspects/vulnerabilities correspond to which CVE.] XAPI can configure different users with different roles, using Role Based Access Control. For more details, see:

The pool-admin role is fully privileged. Notably, users with this role can also SSH into the host as root.

The other administrator roles are pool-operator, vm-power-admin and vm-admin, each of which are authorised to configure and manage various aspects of the system.

Some settings are inadequately restricted, and can be set by a lower privilege of administrator than expected.

 * CVE-2026-23559: A vm-admin can set VBD.other_config:backend-local and
   turn arbitrary files in dom0 into VDIs (virtual disks) and give said
   disks to a VM they control.  This is an arbitrary read and/or modify
   of files in dom0.

 * CVE-2026-23560: A vm-admin can set VM.other-config:is_system_domain
   and mark a VM as a system domain.  System domains are ignored and
   left running during certain other host/pool operations, and may be
   hidden from view in tooling.

 * CVE-2026-23561: A vm-admin can set VM.other_config:storage_driver_domain
   and mark a VM as the storage domain for a particular host storage
   connection (PBD). Shutting down the VM can cause the PBD to be
   erroneously marked as unplugged when it is not.

 * CVE-2026-23562: Configuration of PCI passthrough is normally
   restricted to the pool-admin role.  However one API was missing this
   check, allowing a vm-admin access to unintended host hardware.

 * CVE-2026-42486: A vm-admin can set the VM.platform:hvm_serial
   parameter, which should be restricted to the pool-admin role, as it
   can allow arbitrary dom0 file write.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

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).

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

CVE-2026-23560: Un administrador vm-admin puede establecer VM.other-config:is_system_domain sin autorización, escalando privilegios en el sistema XenServer local para ocultar máquinas virtuales del sistema y eludir operaciones de mantenimiento.

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
