CVE-2026-93856 · Severity: medium · CVSS 4.3 · Published 2026-10-21

OpenStack Cinder is a block storage service that manages virtual storage volumes in cloud environments. A flaw in Cinder's Messages API allows a user with limited read access to one project to view messages and resource identifiers from all other projects in the deployment. An attacker can exploit this to discover infrastructure details, resource UUIDs, and operational metadata across projects they should not have access to.

Vendors: OpenStack.

Technical details

The MessagesController.index endpoint fails to scope the database query to the caller's project, allowing any project-scoped 'member' or 'reader' role to retrieve messages from all projects. The vulnerability stems from missing project filtering in the message_get_all database path; while the authorization policy is project-scoped, the actual query lacks a project_id filter. An attacker with legitimate project-scoped credentials can call GET /v3/messages and receive responses containing resource UUIDs and messages from other projects.
