A flaw was found in OpenStack Octavia. An authenticated user can exploit this vulnerability by associating a Quality of Service (QoS) policy from another project with an amphora. This mishandling of QoS policy authorization may prevent the deletion of the policy, leading to a denial of service (DoS) condition for affected Octavia deployments.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-14 20:41:25 UTC
OpenStack Octavia through 18.0.0 mishandles quality of service (QoS) policy authorization. By associating another project's QoS policy with an amphora, an authenticated user may prevent deletion of that policy. All Octavia deployments are affected.
