Description
Information disclosure in images API in Canonical LXD before 6.5 and 5.21.4 on all platforms allows unauthenticated remote attackers to determine project existence via differing HTTP status code responses.
A vulnerability allowing information disclosure has been identified in the images API of Canonical LXD, affecting versions prior to 6.5 and 5.21.4 on all platforms.
