CVE-2025-66172 PUBLISHED

Apache CloudStack: Any user can attach a volume in their VMs from backups they should not have access to

Assigner: apache
Reserved: 22.11.2025 Published: 08.05.2026 Updated: 09.05.2026

The CloudStack Backup plugin has an improper access logic in versions 4.21.0.0 and 4.22.0.0. Anyone with authenticated user-account access in CloudStack 4.21.0.0+ environments, where this plugin is enabled and have access to specific APIs can restore a volume from any other user's backups and attach the volume to their own VMs.

Backup plugin users using CloudStack 4.21.0.0+ are recommended to upgrade to CloudStack version 4.22.0.1, which fixes this issue.
