High (8.0) in canonical juju. EPSS 0.5% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in github.com/juju/juju 0.0.0-20240826044107-ecd7e2d0e986.
JUJU_CONTEXT_ID is a predictable authentication secret. On a Juju machine (non-Kubernetes) or Juju charm container (on Kubernetes), an unprivileged user in the same network namespace can connect to an abstract domain socket and guess the JUJU_CONTEXT_ID value. This gives the unprivileged user access to the same information and tools as the Juju charm.
