About this tag
WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is a browser subsystem enabling peer-to-peer audio, video, and data channels without plugins. On WindowsForum.com, discussions cover security vulnerabilities like use-after-free (UAF) bugs in Chromium's WebRTC component, including CVE-2025-10501 and CVE-2024-10488, which affect browsers such as Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Other topics include GPU-accelerated D3D12 video encoding for improved performance in video calls, the Ghost Calls technique that exploits TURN infrastructure for covert command-and-control tunneling, and Microsoft's implementation of WebRTC in Edge and the Universal Windows Platform. The tag also covers screen capture APIs and real-time communications interoperability.
