 #CVE-2020-16044: Use-after-free write when handling a malicious COOKIE-
 ECHO SCTP chunk

 Reporter
     Ned Williamson
 Impact
     critical

 Description

 A malicious peer could have modified a COOKIE-ECHO chunk in a SCTP packet
 in a way that potentially resulted in a use-after-free. We presume that
 with enough effort it could have been exploited to run arbitrary code.

 there is a fix for video playback on Apple Silicon.
