Improper Certificate Validation

matrix-sydent is a Reference Matrix Identity Verification and Lookup Server

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Certificate Validation. If configured to send emails using TLS, Sydent does not verify SMTP servers' certificates. This makes Sydent's emails vulnerable to interception via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. Attackers with privileged access to the network can intercept room invitations and address confirmation emails.

How to fix Improper Certificate Validation?

Upgrade matrix-sydent to version 2.5.6 or higher.
