There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) in LXD-UI in Canonical LXD versions >= 5.0 on Linux allows an attacker
    to create and start container instances without user consent via crafted HTML form submissions exploiting
    client certificate authentication. (CVE-2025-54286)

  - Template Injection in instance snapshot creation component in Canonical LXD (>= 4.0) allows an attacker
    with instance configuration permissions to read arbitrary files on the host system via specially crafted
    snapshot pattern templates using the Pongo2 template engine. (CVE-2025-54287)

  - Information Spoofing in devLXD Server in Canonical LXD versions 4.0 and above on Linux container platforms
    allows attackers with root privileges within any container to impersonate other containers and obtain
    their metadata, configuration, and device information via spoofed process names in the command line.
    (CVE-2025-54288)

  - Privilege Escalation in operations API in Canonical LXD <6.5 on multiple platforms allows attacker with
    read permissions to hijack terminal or console sessions and execute arbitrary commands via WebSocket
    connection hijacking format (CVE-2025-54289)

    Package        : incus     CVE ID         : CVE-2025-54286 CVE-2025-54287 CVE-2025-54288                      CVE-2025-54289 CVE-2025-54290 CVE-2025-54291                      CVE-2025-54293

    Multiple security issues were discovered in Incus, a system container     and virtual machine manager, which could result in file disclosure,     information disclosure, privilege escalation or cross-site request     forgery.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 6.0.4-2+deb13u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your incus packages.
