Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
LXD (affected versions not specified)
Description
An authorization bypass allows an authenticated user to exceed project-level disk and volume limits. This occurs because two code paths fail to verify resource limits during volume operations: the
storagePoolVolumeTypePostMove() function omits the limits.AllowVolumeCreation check when moving a volume across projects, and volume snapshot restore operations skip the AllowVolumeUpdate check when the configuration is nil (Config == nil). An attacker can use these flaws to allocate storage resources beyond the administrative limits set for a project.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
