More information:

The vulnerability was publicly disclosed 24. 9. 2026.

OpenStack Blazar - authorization bypass (CVE-2026-93854)
CVSS 7.2 (High)

An authenticated remote attacker who knows a resource reservation (lease) ID can modify or delete reservations of other users and projects when using the V2 lease API of the Blazar service [3].

The vulnerability is present in product:

  • OpenStack Blazar; >=1.0.0, <15.1.1; >=16.0.0, <16.0.1; >=17.0.0, <17.0.1;

The vulnerability is present in product:

  • OpenStack Blazar; >=1.0.0, <15.1.1; >=16.0.0, <16.0.1; >=17.0.0, <17.0.1;

CVSS: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
