Just to let you know I am running it on a laptop with this information:

]$ rpm -qa | grep qemu-system-x86
qemu-system-x86-core-7.2.10-1.fc38.x86_64
qemu-system-x86-7.2.10-1.fc38.x86_64

]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 38 (Thirty Eight)

Running the provided ubuntu image does not work to log in (ubuntu/password). I've test with a fedoda image at https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/40/Cloud/x86_64/images/Fedora-Cloud-Base-AmazonEC2.x86_64-40-1.14.raw.xz

and this does function (fedora/password).

However on another machine running the following it does work for both ubuntu and fedora:

rpm -qa | grep qemu-system-x86

qemu-system-x86-core-8.2.7-1.fc40.x86_64
qemu-system-x86-8.2.7-1.fc40.x86_64

cat /etc/redhat-release

Fedora release 40 (Forty)
