Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: High: The attacker is authorized with (i.e., requires) privileges that provide significant (e.g., administrative) control over the vulnerable component that could affect component-wide settings and files.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the impacted component.
Integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact on the impacted component.
Availability: Low: Performance is reduced or there are interruptions in resource availability. Even if repeated exploitation of the vulnerability is possible, the attacker does not have the ability to completely deny service to legitimate users. The resources in the impacted component are either partially available all of the time, or fully available only some of the time, but overall there is no direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.

Exploitation evidence

CVE published 10 Jun 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-25.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

European organizations should prioritize upgrading Apache CloudStack to versions 4.19.3.0 or 4.20.1.0 or later, where the vulnerability is patched. Beyond patching, organizations should implement strict role-based access controls (RBAC) to limit the number of users with Domain Admin or Resource Admin privileges, reducing the attack surface. Regular audits of admin activities and domain configurations can help detect anomalous API usage patterns indicative of exploitation attempts. Network segmentation and monitoring of API calls related to template and ISO listings can provide early warning signs. Additionally, organizations should review and harden domain isolation policies and consider implementing additional logging and alerting for cross-domain access attempts. Employing multi-factor authentication (MFA) for admin accounts will reduce the risk of credential compromise. Finally, conducting security awareness training for cloud administrators about the risks of privilege misuse is recommended.

Description

In Apache CloudStack, a flaw in access control affects the listTemplates and listIsos APIs. A malicious Domain Admin or Resource Admin can exploit this issue by intentionally specifying the 'domainid' parameter along with the 'filter=self' or 'filter=selfexecutable' values. This allows the attacker to gain unauthorized visibility into templates and ISOs under the ROOT domain. A malicious admin can enumerate and extract metadata of templates and ISOs that belong to unrelated domains, violating isolation boundaries and potentially exposing sensitive or internal configuration details. This vulnerability has been fixed by ensuring the domain resolution strictly adheres to the caller's scope rather than defaulting to the ROOT domain. Affected users are recommended to upgrade to Apache CloudStack 4.19.3.0 or 4.20.1.0.

Impact

For European organizations utilizing Apache CloudStack, especially those operating multi-tenant cloud infrastructures or private clouds, this vulnerability undermines the fundamental security principle of domain isolation. Unauthorized access to templates and ISOs metadata can lead to exposure of sensitive configuration details, potentially facilitating further attacks such as targeted exploitation of known vulnerabilities in exposed templates or unauthorized resource provisioning. This may result in data leakage, compliance violations (e.g., GDPR concerns if sensitive data is indirectly exposed), and erosion of trust in cloud service security. Organizations in sectors with strict data protection requirements, such as finance, healthcare, and government, are particularly at risk. Additionally, the exposure could aid attackers in lateral movement within cloud environments, increasing the risk of broader compromise. Although exploitation requires elevated privileges, insider threats or compromised admin accounts could leverage this flaw to escalate access or gather intelligence on other tenants’ resources.
