Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-54293 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/canonical/lxd (Go): affected from 0.0.0-20200331193331-03aab09f5b5c; fixed in 0.0.0-20250224180022-ec09b24179f3\n- github.com/canonical/lxd (Go): affected from 0.0.0-20200331193331-03aab09f5b5c; fixed in 0.0.0-20250224180022-ec09b24179f3\n- github.com/canonical/lxd (Go): affected from 0.0.0-20200331193331-03aab09f5b5c; fixed in 0.0.0-20250224180022-ec09b24179f3\n- github.com/canonical/lxd (Go): affected from 4.0; fixed in 5.21.4\n- github.com/canonical/lxd (Go): affected from 4.0; fixed in 5.21.4\n- github.com/canonical/lxd (Go): affected from 6.0; fixed in 6.5\n- github.com/canonical/lxd (Go): affected from 6.0; fixed in 6.5\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-54293/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-54293/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-54293","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-54293/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-54293","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2025-54293","GHSA-472f-vmf2-pr3h","GO-2025-4000","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-54293"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"LXD container manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can read arbitrary host files via crafted log names in LXD, requiring immediate patching for system integrity.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"canonical","cpe":[{"product":"lxd","vendor":"canonical"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Path Traversal in the log file retrieval function in Canonical LXD 5.0 LTS on Linux allows authenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary files on the host system via crafted log file names or symbolic links.","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Path Traversal in LXD Instance Log File Retrieval","id":"CVE-2025-54293","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2025"},"n_packages":7,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Extension -
