                     CVE-2026-43507

    Multiple security issues were found in Prosody, a lightweight
    Jabber/XMPP server, which could result in denial of service or
    insufficient access control when using the SOCKS5 proxy module.

    For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed
    in version 0.12.3-1+deb12u1.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in
    version 13.0.1-1+deb131u.

    We recommend that you upgrade your prosody packages.

    For the detailed security status of prosody please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/prosody
