The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 07c0d782-f758-11ec-acaa-901b0e9408dc advisory.
url_preview_enabled: false
set in configuration are not affected. Deployments with url_preview_enabled: true
set in configurationurl_preview_enabled
are not affected, because the default is false
. Administrators of homeservers with URL previews enabled are advised to upgrade to v1.61.1 or higher. Users unable to upgrade should set url_preview_enabled
to false.Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

"The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a
vulnerability as referenced in the 07c0d782-f758-11ec-acaa-901b0e9408dc advisory.
- Synapse is an open source home server implementation for the Matrix chat network. In versions prior to
1.61.1 URL previews of some web pages can exhaust the available stack space for the Synapse process due to
unbounded recursion. This is sometimes recoverable and leads to an error for the request causing the
problem, but in other cases the Synapse process may crash altogether. It is possible to exploit this
maliciously, either by malicious users on the homeserver, or by remote users sending URLs that a local
user's client may automatically request a URL preview for. Remote users are not able to exploit this
directly, because the URL preview endpoint is authenticated. Deployments with `url_preview_enabled: false`
set in configuration are not affected. Deployments with `url_preview_enabled: true` set in configuration
**are** affected. Deployments with no configuration value set for `url_preview_enabled` are not affected,
because the default is `false`. Administrators of homeservers with URL previews enabled are advised to
upgrade to v1.61.1 or higher. Users unable to upgrade should set `url_preview_enabled` to false.
