Dear Colleagues,
We have published a new blog post discussing a novel Denial-of-Service (DoS)
vulnerability affecting WebRTC media servers.
## Executive summary (TL;DR)
A critical denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability has been identified in media
servers that process WebRTC’s DTLS-SRTP, specifically in their handling of
ClientHello messages. This vulnerability arises from a race condition between
ICE and DTLS traffic and can be exploited to disrupt media sessions,
compromising the availability of real-time communication services. Mitigations
include filtering packets based on ICE-validated IP and port combinations. The
article also indicates safe testing methods and strategies for detecting the
attack.
