How to fix?

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 authorization bypass vulnerability in LXD allows an authenticated user to bypass project-level disk and volume limits. Two related code paths fail to verify resource limits during volume operations: the storagePoolVolumeTypePostMove function omits the limits.AllowVolumeCreation check before moving a volume across projects, and volume snapshot restore operations skip the AllowVolumeUpdate check when the configuration is nil (Config == nil). An attacker can exploit these flaws to allocate storage resources that exceed the administrative limits configured for a project.
