Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions webrtc-native versions (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue arises from webrtc-native downloading binary resources over HTTP, making it susceptible to Man-In-The-Middle (MITM) attacks. This could potentially lead to remote code execution (RCE) if an attacker intercepts the download and replaces the binary with a malicious one. This is particularly concerning in scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, allowing them to intercept and alter the response.

Recommendations For all affected versions of webrtc-native, consider building the native components from source to avoid downloading the precompiled binary, thereby mitigating the insecure download vulnerability. Follow the instructions provided by the package author for building from source.
