Important!!-->! Huge Security Flaw Leaks VPN Users’ Real IP-

Post by callibris2007 » Sat Jan 31, 2015 9:01 am

Hi!,
I just read in an other forum about this issue and wanted to inform you all on this.
BTW..., my question is does this also affect the SoftetherVPN Software?

------------------------------------------------------------------

VPN users are facing a massive security flaw as websites can easily see their home IP-addresses
through WebRTC. The vulnerability is limited to supporting browsers such as Firefox and
Chrome, and appears to affect Windows users only. Luckily the security hole is
relatively easy to fix.

It is not the VPN problem. Its effect only browser who support WebRTC technique. If you have connect to Internet not directly ( throw router etc) This method will show only your LAN IP, not the REAL IP.
