Coturn is a free open source implementation of TURN and STUN Server. Prior to 4.16.0, dtls_server_input_handler() and create_new_connected_udp_socket() in src/apps/relay/dtls_listener.c retain OpenSSL dtls1_reassemble_fragment() state for a 35-byte fragmented ClientHello declaring a 650,000-byte handshake before cookie validation, allowing an unauthenticated remote sender using fresh UDP tuples to exhaust memory without TURN credentials, a completed handshake, a valid cookie, or source spoofing. This issue is fixed in version 4.16.0.
