CVE-2022-29189
Pion DTLS would buffer all network traffic from the remote user until the handshake completes or timed out.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.07%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
Pion DTLS is a Go implementation of Datagram Transport Layer Security. Prior to version 2.1.4, a buffer that was used for inbound network traffic had no upper limit. Pion DTLS would buffer all network traffic from the remote user until the handshake completes or timed out. An attacker could exploit this to cause excessive memory usage. Version 2.1.4 contains a patch for this issue. There are currently no known workarounds available.
