CVE-2026-60095: Stack-based Buffer Overflow in Vinchin Backup & Recovery 9.0
Vinchin Backup & Recovery through 9.0.0.86562 contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in the ModuleHandShake function of the agentlink_server service that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to overwrite the saved return address by supplying an oversized _listen_uuid field that is measured via strlen() and copied without bounds checking into a fixed-length stack buffer using strcpy(). Attackers can send a crafted request with a malicious _listen_uuid value to corrupt the stack and achieve process crash or potential control flow hijack without requiring authentication.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-60095 is a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in Vinchin Backup & Recovery through version 9.0.0.86562. The flaw exists in the ModuleHandShake function of the agentlink_server service, where an oversized _listen_uuid field is measured using strlen() and copied into a fixed-length stack buffer using strcpy() without bounds checking. This allows unauthenticated remote attackers to overwrite the saved return address on the stack by sending a crafted request, leading to potential process crashes or control flow hijacking. The vulnerability does not require authentication and has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 6.9 (medium severity). There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time.
Potential Impact
An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via process crash or potentially execute arbitrary code by hijacking control flow. This impacts the availability and integrity of the Vinchin Backup & Recovery service. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, consider restricting network access to the agentlink_server service to trusted sources to reduce exposure.
