Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions MUTE version 0.4

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, where messages are not forwarded, and obtain sensitive information about a target. This is achieved by filling a client's mWebCache cache with malicious "zombie" nodes.

Recommendations For version 0.4, consider restricting access to the mWebCache cache to minimize the risk of exploitation until a patch is available.
