A local unprivileged user can exploit this by attempting to register a machine with a specific class value, which may leave behind a usable, attacker-controlled machine object. This allows the attacker to invoke methods on the privileged object, leading to the execution of arbitrary commands with root privileges on the host system. CVE-2026-29111 When an unprivileged IPC API call is made with spurious data, a stack overwrite occurs, with the attacker controlled content. CVE-2026-40225 udev: local root execution can occur via malicious hardware devices and unsanitized kernel output. CVE-2026-40226 nspawn: an escape-to-host action can occur via a crafted optional config file. For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 247.3-7+deb11u8. We recommend that you upgrade your systemd packages.
