GHSA-7XVG-M3VX-2HHV

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2019-02-18 23:50 – Updated: 2021-01-08 19:13

Summary

Downloads Resources over HTTP in webrtc-native

Details

Affected versions of webrtc-native insecurely download an executable over an unencrypted HTTP connection.

In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, it is possible to intercept the response and replace the executable with a malicious one, resulting in code execution on the system running webrtc-native.

Recommendation

No direct patch is currently available for this vulnerability.

However, if the native components of webrtc-native are built from source, this avoids download the precompiled binary, therefore mitigating the insecure download.

The package author has provided instructions for building from source here.

CVE-2016-10600 (GCVE-0-2016-10600)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2018-06-01 18:00 – Updated: 2024-09-16 22:20

Summary

webrtc-native uses WebRTC from chromium project. webrtc-native downloads binary resources over HTTP, which leaves it vulnerable to MITM attacks. It may be possible to cause remote code execution (RCE) by swapping out the requested binary with an attacker controlled binary if the attacker is on the network or positioned in between the user and the remote server.

Severity ?

No CVSS data available.
