SECURITY RELEASE OF MATRIX-APPSERVICE-IRC 0.35.0 (HIGH SEVERITY)

2022-09-13 — Releases, Security — Denis Kasak (dkasak)

We've released a new version of matrix.org's node-irc 1.3.0 and
matrix-appservice-irc 0.35.0, to patch several security issues:

 * IRC mode operator confusion (Low, GHSA-cq7q-5c67-w39w)
 * Parsing issue leading to room takeovers (High, GHSA-xvqg-mv25-rwvw)
 * Undisclosed issue (Moderate, GHSA-r3p6-cg2c-c4qw)

The details of the final vulnerability will be released at a later date, pending
an audit of the codebase to ensure it's not affected by other similar
vulnerabilities.

The vulnerabilities have been patched in node-irc version 1.3.0 and
matrix-appservice-irc 0.35.0. You can get the release on Github.

The bridges running on the Libera Chat, OFTC and other networks bridged by the
Matrix.org Foundation have been patched.

Please upgrade your IRC bridge as soon as possible.

The above vulnerabilities were reported by Val Lorentz. Thank you!
