Attackers have exploited CVE-2026-116779 in the wild since at least 9 Nov 2026.\n\nAffected product: signalwire freeswitch. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-116779/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-116779/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-116779","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-116779/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-116779","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mg63-h38w-8p9p"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"name":"Freeswitch","product":"freeswitch","vendor":"freeswitch"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"},{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"},{"id":"CWE-749","name":"Exposed Dangerous Method or Function"}],"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 1.11.3, sofia_presence_handle_sip_i_message() split the To user of an inbound SIP MESSAGE on a plus sign and treated the left side as a chat protocol selector. Selecting the api chat proto reached switch_api_execute(), allowing a peer whose MESSAGE was accepted to run FreeSWITCH API commands, including operating-system command sinks, with the daemon's privileges. Inbound chat is enabled on the stock internal and external profiles, and any authenticated profile account is sufficient; stock directory users without password material can also remove that barrier in affected configurations. The flaw permits configuration and credential disclosure, arbitrary call control, and command execution, and exploitation has been observed in the wild. This issue is fixed in version 1.11.3.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-11-01","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":2,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-11-06T17:29:28Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/hackzuoji/freeswitch-cve-2026-116779-POC","stars":2,"title":null},{"date":"2026-11-01T18:15:19Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/majidrahimi5020-lgtm/Poc-exploit-for-CVE-2026-116779-FreeSWITCH-","stars":1,"title":"🚨 CVE ID: CVE-2026-116779 📦 Product: FreeSWITCH 💉 Type: Command Injection (via SIP MESSAGE) 🔥 Score: 9.8 (Critical(RCE)) +20K target "}],"tier":"exploited"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"SignalWire FreeSwitch Code Injection","id":"CVE-2026-116779","indexable":true,"kev":{"dateAdded":"2026-11-09","dueDate":"2026-11-12","knownRansomwareCampaignUse":"Unknown","product":"FreeSwitch","requiredAction":"Apply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes).
