CVE-2026-63300

Cross-project instance move bypasses all project restrictions allowing host command execution

An improper validation vulnerability in the instancePostMigration function in lxd/instancepost.go of LXD allows an authenticated attacker with cancreate_instances permissions on a restricted project to bypass project-level security restrictions. When migrating an instance between projects, LXD fails to validate the instance's configuration against the target project's enforced restrictions (such as restricted.containers.lowlevel, restricted.devices.*, and restricted.networks.access). An attacker can exploit this by creating a disallowed or high-privilege instance in an unrestricted project and subsequently moving it into the restricted project.
