NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream consul package and not the consul package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

HashiCorp Consul 0.5.1 through 1.4.0 can use cleartext agent-to-agent RPC communication because the verify_outgoing setting is improperly documented. NOTE: the vendor has provided reconfiguration steps that do not require a software upgrade.
