CVE-2024-33530
CVE-2024-33530: Password disclosure in Jitsi Meet before version 9391. This vulnerability exposes the password of password-protected Jitsi meetings when users invited after waiting in the lobby receive an invitation. While the CVSS score is 7.5, SOCRadar's Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) indicates a score of 30, suggesting a lower immediate risk compared to critical vulnerabilities, but still requires monitoring. The vulnerability is due to a logic flaw related to lobby management and invitation handling, classified as CWE-640. Successful exploitation allows unauthorized access to otherwise protected meetings. Although tagged "In The Wild," the moderate SVRS score suggests limited active exploitation currently. Organizations using Jitsi Meet should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate this security risk. The disclosure of passwords undermines the security of private meetings.
