CVE-2025-59454 | Apache CloudStack: Lack of user permission validation leading to data leak for few APIs

In Apache CloudStack, a gap in access control checks affected the APIs - createNetworkACL - listNetworkACLs - listResourceDetails - listVirtualMachinesUsageHistory - listVolumesUsageHistory While these APIs were accessible only to authorized users, insufficient permission validation meant that users could occasionally access information beyond their intended scope. Users are recommended to upgrade to Apache CloudStack 4.20.2.0 or 4.22.0.0, which fixes the issue.

Attack vector (AV:N)
Could be attacked over the internet or any normal routed network—not just someone sitting at the machine.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.

Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:N)
Data isn’t meaningfully altered or forged.
Availability (A:N)
Service keeps running; no real outage angle.
