CVE-2026-42488

Estado: AplazadaAlta (8.1)—

Some shadow paging errors paths will switch the page-tables without updating the currently running vCPU reference. This causes a mismatch between the loaded page-tables and the mapcache metadata which can lead to corruption of the mapcache.

CVSS

Versión: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Puntuación base: 8.1

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.55%
Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 44
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).
