CVE-2026-71141 is an easily exploitable vulnerability in the Core component of Oracle VM VirtualBox affecting supported version 7.2.14. An unauthenticated attacker who has logon access to the underlying infrastructure where VirtualBox executes can exploit the issue with low attack complexity, but successful exploitation requires human interaction by another user. The vulnerability has scope change, meaning compromise of VirtualBox can significantly affect additional products or components beyond the vulnerable component itself. Successful exploitation can enable unauthorized modification of critical data, unauthorized access to a subset of accessible data, and partial denial of service.
