                 std::function<void(webrtc::WebTransportState)> callback) override {
        // Parse URL
        GURL parsed_url(url);
        if (!parsed_url.is_valid()) {
            callback(webrtc::WebTransportState::kFailed);
            return;
        }

        // Create QUIC connection
        quic_connection_ = std::make_unique<QuicConnection>(
            parsed_url.HostIsIPAddress() ? parsed_url.host() : 
                ResolveHostname(parsed_url.host()),
            parsed_url.EffectiveIntPort());

        // Set callback
        quic_connection_->SetStateCallback([callback](QuicState state) {
            callback(ConvertQuicStateToWebTransportState(state));
        });

        // Start connection
        quic_connection_->Connect();
    }

    // Send data
    void SendStreamData(uint32_t stream_id,
                       const uint8_t* data,
                       size_t len,
                       bool fin) override {
        if (!quic_connection_) {
            return;
        }

Vulnerability Fix Example:

// Vulnerability fix example: CVE-2021-3442 (Vulnerability in DTLS implementation)
void DtlsTransport::FixCve20213442() {
    // Before fix: Insecure record handling
    // void ProcessRecord(const DtlsRecord& record) {
    //     if (record.type == kHandshake) {
    //         HandleHandshake(record);
    //     } else {
    //         ProcessApplicationData(record);
    //     }
    // }

    // After fix: Add record type validation
    void ProcessRecord(const DtlsRecord& record) {
        // Validate record type
        if (record.type < kChangeCipherSpec || record.type > kApplicationData) {
            LOG(LS_WARNING) << "Invalid DTLS record type: " << record.type;
            return;
        }

        // Process record
        if (record.type == kHandshake) {
            HandleHandshake(record);
        } else if (record.type == kApplicationData) {
            ProcessApplicationData(record);
        } else {
            // Handle other record types
        }
    }
}
