Xray-core concealed a certificate verification bypass vulnerability

Xray-core, a widely used proxy and censorship-circumvention tool, is accused of quietly concealing a certificate verification bypass vulnerability rather than disclosing it openly. The claim was raised in a public discussion, drawing attention from security-minded users concerned that a privacy-critical tool withheld information about a flaw affecting connection authenticity. Commenters are debating the project's disclosure practices and the potential impact on users who rely on it in restrictive network environments.

Why now: Users of a popular anti-censorship tool are alarmed that a security flaw affecting TLS verification was reportedly kept secret instead of responsibly disclosed.
