AI-suggested

A fix is available in OpenStack Blazar version 17.0.1. Users should upgrade to version 17.0.1 or later to remediate this vulnerability. Until upgraded, restrict authenticated user access to trusted parties only to reduce risk.

Description

OpenStack Blazar versions before 17.0.1 have a vulnerability in the V2 lease API where object-level authorization is not properly enforced on update and delete operations. This is due to a mismatch in parameter naming during lease lookup, causing authorization to fallback incorrectly. As a result, any authenticated user who knows a lease ID can modify or delete leases owned by other users or projects, bypassing intended ownership checks.
