Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions UnrealIRCd versions 3.2 and possibly other versions

Description The issue concerns a weak hashing scheme used in the IP cloaking feature, which could allow remote attackers to use brute force methods to gain other users' IP addresses.

Recommendations For version 3.2, consider disabling the IP cloaking feature until a more secure hashing scheme is implemented. For other possibly affected versions, the same recommendation applies: disable the IP cloaking feature to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
