  - Incorrect authorization in the custom storage volume creation endpoint in Canonical LXD versions 5.0.0 and
    later (fixed in 5.0.10, 5.21.8 and 6.10) on Linux allows an authenticated client with permission to create
    custom volumes in a project to copy, and so read, any custom storage volume from any other project on the
    server, including its snapshots and configuration. The client does this with a crafted request that sets a
    source volume and source.project but omits source.type. (CVE-2026-97335)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
