Doc Text:
A flaw was found in OpenStack Mistral. The maintenance API endpoint is missing an authorization check, allowing any authenticated user to activate global maintenance mode on the Mistral service. When an attacker triggers maintenance mode, all write operations (workflow execution creation, environment creation, and similar API calls) are blocked across all tenant projects on the affected Mistral deployment. This results in a denial of service for all tenants until an administrator or the attacker restores normal operation.
