In OpenStack Neutron before 28.0.1, the tagging controller enforces plural policy action names on single-tag write operations while the defined policy rules use singular names. The mismatched names evaluate as allowed under the default policy, permitting a project reader to create and update tags on same-project resources. Deployments running Neutron 26.0.0 or later are affected.
CVE-2026-49299
This medium-severity CVE scores 5.3 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.3%, top 79% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- Lower severity and no public exploit yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
