CVE-2026-73212: coturn peer-IP ACL canonicalization & scope bypass on the RFC 6062 TCP CONNECT relay path → internal-network SSRF and proven internal root RCE

Published Aug 11, 2026

Updated

Coturn is a free open source implementation of TURN and STUN Server. Prior to 4.13.1, goodpeeraddr() in src/server/nsturnserver.c uses ioaaddrinrange() in src/client/nsturnioaddr.c without canonicalizing IPv4-compatible, 6to4, and 64:ff9b::/96 NAT64 address forms, allowing an authenticated RFC 6062 TCP CONNECT relay client to bypass an IPv4 denied-peer-ip range when the Coturn host has a useful translation route. This issue is fixed in version 4.13.1.
