DLA-1671-1 coturn -- LTS security update

Date Reported:

11 Feb 2019

Affected Packages:

coturn

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2018-4056, CVE-2018-4058, CVE-2018-4059.

More information:

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in coTURN, a TURN and STUN server for VoIP.

• CVE-2018-4056

  An SQL injection vulnerability was discovered in the coTURN administrator web portal. As the administration web interface is shared with the production, it is unfortunately not possible to easily filter outside access and this security update completely disables the web interface. Users should use the local, command line interface instead.

• CVE-2018-4058

  Default configuration enables unsafe loopback forwarding. A remote attacker with access to the TURN interface can use this vulnerability to gain access to services that should be local only.

• CVE-2018-4059

  Default configuration uses an empty password for the local command line administration interface. An attacker with access to the local console (either a local attacker or a remote attacker taking advantage of CVE-2018-4058) could escalade privileges to administrator of the coTURN server.

For Debian 8 Jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 4.2.1.2-1+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your coturn packages.
