The authfile directive in the booth config file is ignored, preventing use of authentication in communications from node to node.

MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 1.17%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.17%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

The authfile directive in the booth config file is ignored, preventing use of authentication in communications from node to node. As a result, nodes that do not have the correct authentication key are not prevented from communicating with other nodes in the cluster.
