Description

CVE-2026-116786 is a command injection vulnerability in SignalWire FreeSWITCH prior to version 1.11.2. The flaw exists in the sofia_handle_sip_i_refer() function, which improperly handles Refer-To URI parameters and headers, allowing an authenticated caller to inject arbitrary variables into a new call leg. This can lead to execution of operating system commands with FreeSWITCH process privileges. The vulnerability requires only a registered SIP account and a call that uses the off-box transfer path. It is fixed in version 1.11.2.
