CVE-2020-16044: Use after free in WebRTC
First published: Tue Jan 05 2021(Updated: )
A malicious peer could have modified a COOKIE-ECHO chunk in a SCTP packet in a way that potentially resulted in a use-after-free. We presume that with enough effort it could have been exploited to run arbitrary code.
