CVE-2025-59353 Details
Description
Dragonfly is an open source P2P-based file distribution and image acceleration system. Prior to 2.1.0, a peer can obtain a valid TLS certificate for arbitrary IP addresses, effectively rendering the mTLS authentication useless. The issue is that the Manager’s Certificate gRPC service does not validate if the requested IP addresses “belong to” the peer requesting the certificate—that is, if the peer connects from the same IP address as the one provided in the certificate request. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.1.0.
A vulnerability exists in Dragonfly versions prior to 2.1.0, allowing peers to obtain valid TLS certificates for arbitrary IP addresses. This flaw undermines the mutual TLS (mTLS) authentication, as the Manager's Certificate gRPC service fails to verify whether the requested IP addresses correspond to the peer's actual connection IP. The vulnerability arises because the service does not ensure that the peer is requesting a certificate for an IP address it is connected from.
Users can upgrade to Dragonfly version 2.1.0 or later to address this vulnerability.
