The French CERT (ANSSI) has issued an advisory regarding multiple security vulnerabilities discovered in FreeRadius, an open-source RADIUS server implementation. The vulnerabilities affect FreeRadius versions 3.2.x prior to 3.2.9 and versions 3.0.x prior to 3.0.28. According to the advisory, these flaws allow attackers to remotely trigger denial of service conditions, compromise the confidentiality of data, and exploit additional security weaknesses not yet detailed by the vendor.
FreeRadius is widely deployed in enterprise and service provider environments for network authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) functions. The affected versions handle critical authentication flows for wireless networks, VPN access, and network access control systems. Organizations using vulnerable versions should prioritize patching, as exploitation could enable unauthorized access or service disruption.
The vendor has released patches in versions 3.0.28 and 3.2.9 to address these issues. Given the role FreeRadius plays in authentication infrastructure and the remote exploitability of at least some vulnerabilities, organizations should treat this as a high-priority update cycle, particularly for internet-facing or high-value authentication servers.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. The paid plans add the security research and news reporting the free tier leaves out.
It sits in a corpus of 16,436 reports from 149 sources, 661 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Slack alerts are a paid-plan feature: name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them, not the rest of the week's. Nothing is charged unless you subscribe.
