Overview

irrd is an Internet Routing Registry daemon (IRRd)

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Information Exposure. It did not always filter password hashes in query responses relating to mntner objects and database exports. This may have allowed adversaries to retrieve some of these hashes, perform a brute-force search for the clear-text passphrase, and use these to make unauthorised changes to affected IRR objects.
