highpriority · track · 0EPSS 0.002 · 16 %ileDEEUEPSS · scored 2026-10-27
Malicious software running in a guest VM can exploit the buffer overflow to achieve code execution on the host in the bhyve userspace process, which typically runs as root. Note that bhyve runs in a Capsicum sandbox, so malicious code is constrained by the capabilities available to the bhyve process.
