GHSA-p8hw-rfjg-689h: Canonical LXD CSRF Vulnerability When Using Client Certificate Authentication with the LXD-UI

### Description OIDC authentication uses cookies with the SameSite=Strict attribute, preventing cookies from being sent with requests from other sites. Therefore, CSRF does not occur as long as web services in a Same Site relationship (same eTLD+1) with the origin running LXD-UI are trusted. However, since the SameSite concept does not apply to client certificates, CSRF protection that doesn't rely on the SameSite attribute is necessary. Note that when using cross-origin fetch API, client certificates are not sent in no-cors mode due to CORS restrictions (according to the WHATWG Fetch specification(https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#credentials), client certificates are treated as credentials), making cross-site attacks using fetch API difficult unless CORS settings are vulnerable. However, since LXD's API parses request bodies as JSON even when `Content-Type` is `text/plain` or `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`, CSRF attacks exploiting HTML form submissions are possible. ### Reproduc...

GHSA-3g72-chj4-2228: Canonical LXD Vulnerable to Privilege Escalation via WebSocket Connection Hijacking in Operations API

### Impact LXD's operations API includes secret values necessary for WebSocket connections when retrieving information about running operations. These secret values are used for authentication of WebSocket connections for terminal and console sessions. Therefore, attackers with only read permissions can use secret values obtained from the operations API to hijack terminal or console sessions opened by other users. Through this hijacking, attackers can execute arbitrary commands inside instances with the victim's privileges. ### Reproduction Steps 1. Log in to LXD-UI using an account with read-only permissions 2. Open browser DevTools and execute the following JavaScript code Note that this JavaScript code uses the /1.0/events API to capture execution events for terminal startup, establishes a websocket connection with that secret, and sends touch /tmp/xxx to the data channel. ```js (async () => { class LXDEventsSession { constructor(callback) { this.wsBase = `wss://${window.locati...
