DescriptionCVE.org

mediasoup is a WebRTC video conferencing system. From version 3.20.0 until 3.20.6 for the npm package and from 0.22.0 until 0.22.5 for the Rust crate, mediasoup's built-in SCTP stack authenticates state cookies using only the hardcoded msworker and 0xAD81 magic values instead of a per-instance secret and HMAC, contrary to RFC 9260 Section 5.1.3. The cookie structure and validation in worker/include/RTC/SCTP/association/StateCookie.hpp and worker/src/RTC/SCTP/association/StateCookie.cpp allow an on-path attacker targeting PlainTransport or PipeTransport with SCTP enabled and without DTLS protection to forge a COOKIE-ECHO whose packet verification tag matches the attacker-controlled localVerificationTag. The forged cookie passes StateCookie::IsMediasoupStateCookie() and Association::HandleReceivedCookieEchoChunk(), establishes an unauthorized SCTP association, and permits DataChannel message injection as a trusted peer. WebRtcTransport is not affected because its SCTP runs inside DTLS. This issue is fixed in npm version 3.20.6 and Rust crate version 0.22.5.

AnalysisAI

SCTP state cookie forgery in mediasoup (npm 3.20.0-3.20.5, Rust crate 0.22.0-0.22.4) permits an on-path attacker to establish unauthorized SCTP associations and inject DataChannel messages as a trusted peer, violating RFC 9260 Section 5.1.3. The root cause is that cookie validation relies entirely on two hardcoded magic constants ('msworker' and 0xAD81) rather than a per-instance HMAC secret - all remaining cookie fields are attacker-controlled, and COOKIE-ECHO packets bypass verification-tag and CRC32c checks by design. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires the attacker to hold an active on-path (network man-in-the-middle) position enabling interception and injection of UDP packets between the victim and the mediasoup worker. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The NVD CVSS 3.1 score of 5.6 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) is an accurate representation of this vulnerability's real-world priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade the mediasoup npm package to version 3.20.6 or the Rust crate to version 0.22.5, both confirmed fixed by the vendor in the GHSA advisory (https://github.com/versatica/mediasoup/security/advisories/GHSA-p7x2-g5cq-fhmq) and implemented via PR #1829 (https://github.com/versatica/mediasoup/pull/1829). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
