High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Prosody versions prior to 0.11.9
Description
The issue is related to the undocumented dialback without dialback option in the mod dialback module, which enables an experimental feature for server-to-server authentication. This option does not correctly authenticate remote server certificates, allowing a remote server to impersonate another server when the option is enabled. The vulnerability is associated with incorrect authentication of remote server certificates.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 0.11.9, update to version 0.11.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the dialback without dialback option in the mod dialback module until a patch is available. Restrict access to the mod dialback module to minimize the risk of exploitation.
