CVE-2026-63296

CriticalCVSS 9.9
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

An authorization bypass vulnerability in LXD allows an authenticated attacker to bypass target project restrictions during instance migration. When migrating an instance to a target project, LXD accepts configuration overrides without validating the new configuration against the target project's enforced restrictions.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can move instances with disallowed high-privilege configurations into restricted projects, bypassing security controls.

Recommendation

Upgrade LXD to a patched version that validates configuration during migration and review project policies.
