CVE-2026-49843

FreeSWITCH: Pre-authentication session eviction via attacker-chosen `sessid` in `mod_verto`

Published Jun 9, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 5.3 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
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 JSON-RPC handler bound the connection to the client-supplied sessid on the first frame, before the authentication gate. Binding inserts the connection into the global session hash and, on a key collision, drops the prior occupant of that slot — sending it a verto.punt, detaching its calls, and closing its socket. An unauthenticated network attacker who knows a target session UUID could therefore evict the legitimate client. This issue has been patched in version 1.11.1.
