    CVE ID         : CVE-2026-55707
    Debian Bug     : 1142937 1143170

    Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Neutron, the OpenStack virtual
    network service. These vulnerabilities were reported by Tim Shephard from
    roiai.ca.

    CVE-2026-55707

        A project member can onboard subnets from another project's shared network into
        their own subnetpool, mutating the victim's persistent subnet state and
        altering L3 routing, NAT, and address-scope behavior for victim routers. Only
        deployments with shared or RBAC-shared networks and the subnetpool onboarding
        extension enabled are affected.

    Not assigned yet

        A project member can read or modify another project's sub-resource by
        substituting their own parent resource ID in URL used in APIs. For
        conntrack helpers, deletion is also possible. The attack requires
        knowing the victim's sub-resource UUID, which is a random UUIDv4 that
        cannot be enumerated through the API.

    For Debian 12 bookworm, this problem has been fixed in version
    2:21.0.0-7+deb12u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your neutron packages.
