Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Kroxylicious runtime (io.kroxylicious:kroxylicious-runtime) versions before 0.8.0 do not properly verify the upstream Kafka server's hostname over TLS connections. An attacker who can perform a man-in-the-middle attack or compromise DNS or network routing could impersonate the server, affecting data confidentiality and integrity; the source describes this as a high-complexity attack requiring high privileges. Upgrade to version 0.8.0 or later.
