FKIE_CVE-2025-22828

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-01-13 13:16 - Updated: 2025-07-01 19:20
Severity ?
4.3 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N
Summary
CloudStack users can add and read comments (annotations) on resources they are authorised to access.  Due to an access validation issue that affects Apache CloudStack versions from 4.16.0, users who have access, prior access or knowledge of resource UUIDs can list and add comments (annotations) to such resources.  An attacker with a user-account and access or prior knowledge of resource UUIDs may exploit this issue to read contents of the comments (annotations) or add malicious comments (annotations) to such resources.  This may cause potential loss of confidentiality of CloudStack environments and resources if the comments (annotations) contain any privileged information. However, guessing or brute-forcing resource UUIDs are generally hard to impossible and access to listing or adding comments isn't same as access to CloudStack resources, making this issue of very low severity and general low impact. CloudStack admins may also disallow listAnnotations and addAnnotation API access to non-admin roles in their environment as an interim measure.

      "value": "Los usuarios de CloudStack pueden agregar y leer comentarios (anotaciones) en los recursos a los que est\u00e1n autorizados a acceder. Debido a un problema de validaci\u00f3n de acceso que afecta a las versiones de Apache CloudStack desde la 4.16.0, los usuarios que tienen acceso, acceso previo o conocimiento de los UUID de los recursos pueden enumerar y agregar comentarios (anotaciones) a dichos recursos. Un atacante con una cuenta de usuario y acceso o conocimiento previo de los UUID de los recursos puede aprovechar este problema para leer el contenido de los comentarios (anotaciones) o agregar comentarios maliciosos (anotaciones) a dichos recursos. Esto puede provocar una posible p\u00e9rdida de confidencialidad de los entornos y recursos de CloudStack si los comentarios (anotaciones) contienen informaci\u00f3n privilegiada. Sin embargo, adivinar o forzar brutamente los UUID de los recursos es generalmente dif\u00edcil o imposible y el acceso para enumerar o agregar comentarios no es lo mismo que el acceso a los recursos de CloudStack, lo que hace que este problema sea de muy baja gravedad y, en general, de bajo impacto. Los administradores de CloudStack tambi\u00e9n pueden prohibir el acceso a la API listAnnotations y addAnnotation a roles que no sean de administrador en su entorno como medida provisional."
