Remote service crash via misaligned attribute dereference
Published Apr 21, 2026 · Updated Apr 21, 2026
Incorrect type conversion in coturn before 4.10.0 allows remote attackers to crash ARM64 turnserver processes via crafted STUN packets. stun_attr_get_next_str advances by an unpadded odd attribute length, after which stun_attr_get_len casts the resulting odd-aligned byte pointer to uint16_t * and dereferences it. A single unauthenticated UDP packet triggers SIGBUS on AArch64 systems with strict alignment, terminating the service without affecting confidentiality or integrity.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
