What Is a WebRTC Leak?

WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is a browser technology that enables video calls, voice chat, and file sharing directly in your browser. Services like Google Meet, Discord, and Zoom use WebRTC.

The problem is that WebRTC can reveal your real IP address through a method called STUN requests. These requests bypass your VPN tunnel and expose your real IP to websites, even when you're connected to a VPN.

This is a serious privacy concern because websites can use WebRTC to:

Identify your real IP address and location
Detect that you're using a VPN
Track you across websites
Bypass geo-restrictions

How to Fix WebRTC Leaks

Protect yourself from WebRTC leaks with these methods:

Use a VPN with WebRTC Protection

Aultra VPN's mobile apps don't expose WebRTC. On desktop, combine your VPN with browser extensions that disable WebRTC.

Disable WebRTC in Your Browser

In Firefox: Go to about:config and set media.peerconnection.enabled to false. Chrome requires an extension.

Use Browser Extensions

Extensions like "WebRTC Leak Prevent" or "uBlock Origin" can block WebRTC leaks in Chrome and other browsers.

Test Regularly

Browser updates can reset your WebRTC settings. Test periodically to ensure you're still protected.

Browser-Specific Instructions

How to disable WebRTC in popular browsers:

Firefox

Type about:config in the address bar, accept the warning, search for media.peerconnection.enabled, and double-click to set it to false.

Chrome

Install a WebRTC blocking extension like "WebRTC Leak Prevent" or "uBlock Origin" from the Chrome Web Store, then enable WebRTC blocking.

Safari

Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced, enable "Show Develop menu", then Develop > Experimental Features > Remove Legacy WebRTC API.
