Executive summary (TL;DR) Exploiting CVE-2022-0778 in a WebRTC context requires that you get a few things right first. But once that is sorted, DoS (in RTC) is the new RCE! How I got social engineered into looking at CVE-2022-0778 A few days ago, Philipp Hancke, self-proclaimed purveyor of the dark side of WebRTC, messaged me privately with a very simple question: “are you offering a DTLS scanner by chance?” He explained how in the context of WebRTC it would be a bit difficult since you need to get signaling right, ICE (that dance with STUN and other funny things) and finally, you get to do your DTLS scans.…

It’s been a month already since the Kamailio World RTC security chat! The conversation included Daniel-Constantin Mierla and Olle E. Johansson from the Kamailio project and myself. Daniel is the lead developer of Kamailio, can be found at ASIPTO while Olle is behind Edvina.net. If you don’t have time to watch the entire conversation, the following is my summary of this discussion: Introductions and discussions After introductions from Daniel, I took lead to briefly mention what we at Enable Security have been up to, including our work on SIPVicious PRO, our research on WebRTC security especially regarding the TURN server abuse vulnerability, our work on DoS in VoIP and WebRTC infrastructure and finally, research on how Kamailio may be (mis)configured to introduce vulnerabilities.…

On 2nd September, 14:00-14:30 Berlin time, the author of this post is joining Olle E. Johansson to chat at Kamailio World online about (guess what?) SIP and VoIP security, and recommendations on how working from home impacts security. I very much look forward to our discussions that will be streamed live on the Kamailio World youtube channel! My arguments will likely be turned into an opinion piece later on, but they’ll likely steer towards the following thoughts:…

How we abused Slack’s TURN servers to gain access to internal services
Last updated on Apr 6, 2020 in webrtc security, bug bounty, research, stunner
Executive summary (TL;DR) Slack’s TURN server allowed relaying of TCP connections and UDP packets to internal Slack network and meta-data services on AWS. And we were awarded $3,500 for our bug-bounty report on HackerOne. A very brief introduction to the TURN protocol The Wikipedia page for this protocol is somewhat handy because it explains that: Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN) is a protocol that assists in traversal of network address translators (NAT) or firewalls for multimedia applications.…
