• Severity: medium (CVSS 6.5 v3.1)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.2% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: none known
• Published: 2026-05-01 · updated 2026-06-17
• Weakness: CWE-420

Description

An issue was discovered in Prosody before 0.12.6 and 1.0.0 through 13.0.0 before 13.0.5, when mod_proxy65 is enabled. Because mod_proxy65 mishandles access control in the activation scenario, relaying of unauthenticated traffic can occur.

Affected products

• Prosody: before 0.12.6; from 13.0.0 before 13.0.5 — fixed in 0.12.6, 13.0.5

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: Prosody 0.12.6, 13.0.5. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
