Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for spice-vdagent.
CVE-2026-57966[0]:
| A path traversal vulnerability was found in spice-vdagent. This flaw
| allows a malicious or compromised SPICE host to write arbitrary
| files to any location on the guest operating system. This occurs
| because the filename provided by the SPICE host during file
| transfers is not properly sanitized before being used. An attacker
| could exploit this to write to sensitive locations with the
| privileges of the spice-vdagent process, typically the logged-in
| user. This issue requires the SPICE host to be untrusted or
| compromised for exploitation.
