CVE-2026-71193
Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.
Description
In OpenStack Designate before 22.0.1, zone creation checks (_is_subzone, _is_superzone, and the duplicate-zone DB constraint) are scoped to the target pool only. An authenticated user can bypass these checks by scheduling a zone to a different pool via the AttributeFilter scheduler, creating an overlapping zone that conflicts with another tenant's zone. This enables cross-tenant DNS hijack (redirecting traffic to attacker-controlled IPs) and DNS denial of service (NODATA responses). Exploitation requires a multi-pool deployment with AttributeFilter enabled in scheduler_filters, which is a non-default but documented and supported configuration for self-service tiering.

"value": "En OpenStack Designate antes de 22.0.1, las comprobaciones de creación de zonas (_is_subzone, _is_superzone, y la restricción de base de datos de zona duplicada) están limitadas solo al pool de destino. Un usuario autenticado puede eludir estas comprobaciones programando una zona a un pool diferente a través del planificador AttributeFilter, creando una zona superpuesta que entra en conflicto con la zona de otro inquilino. Esto permite el secuestro de DNS entre inquilinos (redirigiendo el tráfico a IPs controladas por el atacante) y la denegación de servicio de DNS (respuestas NODATA). La explotación requiere una implementación de múltiples pools con AttributeFilter habilitado en scheduler_filters, lo cual es una configuración no predeterminada pero documentada y soportada para la estratificación de autoservicio."
