CVE-2026-116789

HighCVSS 7.4
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

In FreeSWITCH prior to 1.11.2, dtls_state_setup() compares the peer certificate with the SDP a=fingerprint only when FreeSWITCH is the DTLS client, not when it is the DTLS server. An unauthenticated peer can complete the DTLS-SRTP handshake with an unrelated certificate, obtain SRTP keys, and inject media.

Risk Assessment

An attacker could eavesdrop, decrypt, and inject media and displace the legitimate endpoint, compromising confidentiality and integrity of VoIP calls.

Recommendation

Update FreeSWITCH to version 1.11.2 and set rtp_dtls_client_cert_verify_mode=fingerprint.

Original NVD description (English source)

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 1.11.2, dtls_state_setup() compared a peer certificate with the SDP a=fingerprint only when FreeSWITCH was the DTLS client, not when it held the DTLS server role. An unauthenticated peer able to reach the negotiated media port could complete the DTLS-SRTP handshake with an unrelated certificate, obtain the leg's SRTP keys, decrypt and inject media, and displace the legitimate endpoint; on ICE-enabled legs the peer also needs the connectivity-check credentials from SDP, which generally requires signaling visibility or a position on its path. WebRTC and SIP DTLS-SRTP legs are affected whenever the peer selects the active role, while FreeSWITCH client-role handshakes already perform fingerprint validation. Version 1.11.2 introduces the remediation, which requires rtp_dtls_client_cert_verify_mode=fingerprint.
