- More information:
-
A flaw was discovered in coturn, a TURN and STUN server for VoIP. By default coturn does not allow peers on the loopback addresses (127.x.x.x and ::1). A remote attacker can bypass the protection via a specially crafted request using a peer address of
0.0.0.0
and trick coturn in relaying to the loopback interface. If listening on IPv6 the loopback interface can also be reached by using either [::1] or [::] as the address.For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 4.5.0.5-1+deb9u3.
We recommend that you upgrade your coturn packages.
