Rogue VM
Virtual hostname spoofing
Zero-day
Privileged container escape
A rogue virtual machine (VM) is an instance that is created and started without proper authorization or change control. Because it is unmanaged, a rogue VM can be used to launch additional attacks, intercept data, or run unauthorized workloads such as cryptocurrency mining while staying hidden from normal hypervisor management tools.
Zero-day vulnerabilities and container escapes are legitimate risks, but they are not unique to hypervisor-based virtualization. Virtual hostname spoofing is not a widely cited threat in modern virtualization platforms.
