ModernBill 5.0.4 and earlier uses cURL with insecure settings for CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER and CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST that do not verify SSL certificates, which allows remote attackers to read network traffic via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack.

Security readout for executives and security teams

ModernBill 5.0.4 and earlier reportedly failed to properly verify SSL certificates when using cURL. In plain terms, a person positioned between ModernBill and another HTTPS service could potentially read traffic that users expected to be protected. Exposure is most likely in legacy ModernBill deployments at version 5.0.4 or earlier, especially where the application connects to payment, licensing, provisioning, or account services over networks an attacker could intercept. Treat this as a legacy exposure review item with business sensitivity. It can affect confidentiality of billing or account-related traffic, but the provided sources do not establish active exploitation or a vendor-supported remediation path. Mitigation focus: Identify whether ModernBill 5.0.4 or earlier remains deployed.; Check vendor or archived project guidance for an official fixed version or configuration change.; Ensure maintained code enforces peer and host certificate verification for cURL HTTPS calls..
