This vulnerability allows a local attacker with the ability to inspect running processes to expose sensitive guest virtual machine (VM) credentials, such as `rootPassword` and `userPassword`. This occurs when the `install_machine.py` script passes these credentials as a JSON command-line argument during VM creation or installation. The exposure is limited to the period when the installation workflow is active and depends on host process-visibility policies.","cvssScore":5,"cvssSeverity":"MEDIUM","cvssVector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","cwes":["CWE-214"],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-92747","tags":[]},{"url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2469260","tags":[]},{"url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2469260","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[],"hasPoc":false,"ai":null}
