Miggo AIRoot Cause Analysis

The vulnerability stems from the insecure configuration in create_client_stream where TLS was explicitly disabled (use_tls=false) and a non-TLS port (6667) was used. The patch in commit 74d13dd directly addresses this by setting 'use_tls: Some(true)' and switching to port 6697 (standard TLS port for IRC). The CWE-311 mapping and advisory references confirm this function's configuration was the root cause.
