CVE-2026-31798 — JumpServer Improper Certificate Validation in Custom SMS API Client

JumpServer is an open source bastion host and an operation and maintenance security audit system. Prior to v4.10.16-lts, JumpServer improperly validates certificates in the Custom SMS API Client. When JumpServer sends MFA/OTP codes via Custom SMS API, an attacker can intercept the request and capture the verification code BEFORE it reaches the user's phone. This vulnerability is fixed in v4.10.16-lts.
