Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for coturn.

CVE-2026-68555[0]:
| Coturn is a free open source implementation of TURN and STUN Server.
| In 4.15.0, an authenticated TURN user can repeatedly resume one
| allocation from fresh UDP 5-tuples without completing a handoff when
| the server enables --mobility. mobile_begin_transition() in
| src/server/ns_turn_server.c disarms each new session's allocation
| timeout and overwrites the allocation's single mobile_pending_resume
| link, leaving earlier pending sessions unreachable by the cleanup
| path, while copy_auth_parameters() ignores inc_quota() failure. The
| attacker can therefore retain unbounded server-side sessions and
| exhaust process memory even when --user-quota=1 is configured. This
| issue is fixed in version 4.16.0.
