FKIE_CVE-2026-49842
Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-06-09 17:17 - Updated: 2026-07-23 08:10
Severity
Summary
FreeSWITCH is a Software Defined Telecom Stack enabling the digital transformation from proprietary telecom switches to a software implementation that runs on any commodity hardware. Prior to version 1.11.1, mod_verto's WebSocket frame loop intercepts a #-prefixed speed-test protocol (#SPU / #SPB / #SPE) before any authentication check. The declared payload size in #SPU was parsed with atoi() and only rejected non-positive values, so an unauthenticated peer could request up to INT_MAX bytes. The server then wrote roughly size * 10 bytes back during the download phase, on the order of 20 GB per request, yielding strong outbound bandwidth amplification from a short request. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.1.

El servidor luego escribi\u00f3 aproximadamente tama\u00f1o * 10 bytes de vuelta durante la fase de descarga, del orden de 20 GB por solicitud, lo que produce una fuerte amplificaci\u00f3n del ancho de banda saliente a partir de una solicitud corta. Este problema ha sido parcheado en la versi\u00f3n 1.11.1."
