CVE-2024-51738 affects Sunshine, a self-hosted game stream host for Moonlight, specifically versions 0.23.1 and earlier. This vulnerability, rated 8.1 HIGH, stems from a flaw in Sunshine's pairing protocol that allows a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack due to a lack of request order validation, enabling an unauthenticated attacker to hijack legitimate pairing attempts or crash the server. While the vulnerability has a high severity and significant potential impact (confidentiality, integrity, and availability), there is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion.
