Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Affected versions of webrtc-native insecurely download an executable over an unencrypted HTTP connection. In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, it is possible to intercept the response and replace the executable with a malicious one, resulting in code execution on the system running webrtc-native. Recommendation No direct patch is currently available for this vulnerability. However, if the native components of webrtc-native are built from source, this avoids download the precompiled binary, therefore mitigating the insecure download. The package author has provided instructions for building from source here.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2016-10600

Advisory: Downloads Resources over HTTP in webrtc-native
IDs: CVE-2016-10600, GHSA-7xvg-m3vx-2hhv
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2016-10600 (revision 2, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 12:07 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Unrated
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor response not established. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- npm webrtc-native: affected <= 1.4.0

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `npm ls webrtc-native --all`: lists every installed copy and version, including transitive ones. Run in the project root after `npm ci`.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on webrtc-native.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
