Prior to version 7.0.0, user provided image and backup tarballs would be unpacked and YAML files parsed without any size restrictions. This was making it easy for an authenticated user to provide a crafted image or backup tarball that when parsed by Incus would lead to a very large YAML document being loaded into memory, potentially causing the entire server to run out of memory. This issue has been patched in version 7.0.0.","cvss_v4":{"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","score":5.3},"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L","score":5.0},"cwes":["CWE-770"],"references":["https://github.com/lxc/incus/releases/tag/v7.0.0","https://github.com/lxc/incus/security/advisories/GHSA-67wx-r9xr-x75x","https://github.com/lxc/incus/security/advisories/GHSA-67wx-r9xr-x75x"],"products":["linuxcontainers:incus"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-26T22:26:44.656832877+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-41648","score":0.00269,"percentile":0.18839,"date":"2026-10-26"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-67wx-r9xr-x75x","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-67wx-r9xr-x75x","summary":"Incus has Unbounded YAML Metadata Decode via Parsing","modified":"2026-06-25T18:56:08.340911521Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/lxc/incus/v6/cmd/incusd","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/lxc/incus/v6/cmd/incusd","ranges":["<=6.23.0"],"fixed":[]}]},{"id":"GO-2026-5168","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GO-2026-5168","summary":"Incus has Unbounded YAML Metadata Decode via Parsing in github.com/lxc/incus","modified":"2026-06-25T18:45:19.483615125Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/lxc/incus","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/lxc/incus","ranges":["all versions"],"fixed":[]},{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"github.com/lxc/incus/v6","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/lxc/incus/v6","ranges":["all versions"],"fixed":[]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
