Alpine: multiple coturn packages: security update to 4.5.1.3-r0 (deprecated)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 400296

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Coturn is free open source implementation of TURN and STUN Server. Coturn before version 4.5.2 by default
does not allow peers to connect and relay packets to loopback addresses in the range of `127.x.x.x`.
However, it was observed that when sending a `CONNECT` request with the `XOR-PEER-ADDRESS` value of
`0.0.0.0`, a successful response was received and subsequently, `CONNECTIONBIND` also received a
successful response. Coturn then is able to relay packets to the loopback interface. Additionally, when
coturn is listening on IPv6, which is default, the loopback interface can also be reached by making use of
either `[::1]` or `[::]` as the peer address. By using the address `0.0.0.0` as the peer address, a
malicious user will be able to relay packets to the loopback interface, unless `--denied-peer-ip=0.0.0.0`
(or similar) has been specified. Since the default configuration implies that loopback peers are not
allowed, coturn administrators may choose to not set the `denied-peer-ip` setting. The issue patched in
version 4.5.2. As a workaround the addresses in the address block `0.0.0.0/8`, `[::1]` and `[::]` should
be denied by default unless `--allow-loopback-peers` has been specified. (CVE-2020-26262)
