Présentation
This is a guest post by abstractappsec who found a bug that was fixed in the Mumble 1.5.857 release (PR #6875).
This patch was due to an experimental bug hunt that I began a few months ago, and for which I coordinated findings with @Krzmbrzl. In this blog post the developers invited me to present, I’ll be taking a little detour from your standard Mumble blogs and talking about a way to contribute to open source even if you’re not a particularly strong coder. This is not an “information disclosure” or remote code execution type of bug, but I’ll make the case for its potential security implications as well.
Today we release the fourth patch release in the Mumble 1.5.x series. This patch is smaller in size, but contains some important server-side fixes. We are unable to provide new pre-compiled macOS binaries for the 1.5 series. Please read this blog post for more information.
Mumble was the first VoIP application to establish true low latency voice communication over a decade ago. But low latency and gaming are not the only use cases it shines in.
