Juju Authorization Flaws
2026-04-03
Unauthorized resource modification in Juju application orchestration engine allows any authenticated controller user to tamper with application resources across the entire controller scope. Affects Juju 2.9.0-2.9.55 and 3.6.0-3.6.18. Patched in versions 2.9.56 and 3.6.19. EPSS score of 0.01% suggests low probability of mass exploitation. No active exploitation confirmed (not in CISA KEV). Authentication requirement (PR:L) limits attack surface to compromised credentials or malicious insiders.
Juju application orchestration engine versions 2.9 to 2.9.55 and 3.6 to 3.6.18 allow a compromised workload machine to read arbitrary log files for any entity across any model without proper authorization checks. This authentication bypass (CWE-863) affects high-privilege scenarios where an attacker already controls a machine within a Juju-managed infrastructure, enabling lateral information disclosure to extract sensitive operational logs. The vulnerability has been patched in Juju 2.9.56 and 3.6.19.
