Qemu: 9pfs: improper access control on special files

Published: 12/6/2023 Last updated: 8/2/2024 Reserved: 5/24/2023

A flaw was found in the 9p passthrough filesystem (9pfs) implementation in QEMU. The 9pfs server did not prohibit opening special files on the host side, potentially allowing a malicious client to escape from the exported 9p tree by creating and opening a device file in the shared folder.
