CVE-2026-105924: NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in QCborValue to JSON conversion impacts Qt
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 17/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.16% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. No account or password is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: qt Qt 6.12.1; azl3 qtbase 6.6.3-7 on Azure Linux 3.0 Release Notes.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to qt Qt 6.12.1; azl3 qtbase 6.6.3-7 on Azure Linux 3.0 Release Notes or later.
