Newlines, Symlinks, and Arbitrary Writes: Dissecting High-Severity Vulnerabilities in Incus
Rory McNamara
Containerization and Virtualization solutions are crucial components in any modern infrastructure, which is why they're regular guests in the Snyk Security Labs research queue. In the past, we have examined solutions such as Docker and Proxmox, which have revealed some interesting vulnerabilities. We've recently been seeing a lot of chatter around the Incus project, which offers "a next-generation system container, application container, and virtual machine manager", and decided it would be worth a look.
The vulnerabilities discussed in this blog post were fixed in Incus 6.21, released January 24th, 2026.
