There is no fixed version for Debian:13 lxd.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lxd package and not the lxd package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

An improper validation vulnerability in the instancePostMigration function in lxd/instance_post.go of LXD allows an authenticated attacker with can_create_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.
