Lifecycle Timeline
5Description
Privilege Escalation in operations API in Canonical LXD <6.5 on multiple platforms allows attacker with read permissions to hijack terminal or console sessions and execute arbitrary commands via WebSocket connection hijacking format
Analysis
Privilege Escalation in operations API in Canonical LXD <6.5 on multiple platforms allows attacker with read permissions to hijack terminal or console sessions and execute arbitrary commands via WebSocket connection hijacking format
Technical Context
Privilege escalation allows a low-privileged user or process to gain elevated permissions beyond what was originally authorized.
Affected Products
Affected products: Canonical Lxd
Remediation
Apply the principle of least privilege. Keep systems patched. Monitor for suspicious privilege changes. Use mandatory access controls (SELinux, AppArmor).
