Technical details

A missing authorization vulnerability (CWE-862) existed in the repository creation functionality of Google Cloud BigQuery, Dataform, and Colab Enterprise. The flaw allowed an authenticated attacker with low privileges to bypass intended access controls during the creation process, leading to privilege escalation and the ability to take over repositories belonging to other tenants (cross-tenant impact). The vulnerability was reachable over the network without user interaction. Google has patched the backend services, and the vulnerability is no longer exploitable; no customer action is required.
