asterisk users - Jan 2009 - Asterisk 1.2.31.1, 1.4.22.2, 1.4.23.1, and 1.6.0.5 released

The Asterisk.org development team has announced the release of Asterisk
1.2.31.1, 1.4.22.2, 1.4.23.1, and 1.6.0.5. These releases are available for
immediate download from http://downloads.digium.com/.

This update for Asterisk includes a security fix for chan_iax2. Please see the
associated security adivisory for more details:
http://downloads.digium.com/pub/security/AST-2009-001.html

These updates are a fix to a previous security release (released as versions
1.2.31, 1.4.22.1, and 1.6.0.3).

The new versions are being released after additional testing revealed some
issues with the way that scanning for users was blocked. Those issues have
been corrected in this release.

This security issue affects the 1.2, 1.4, and 1.6 series of Asterisk.

Also note, that Asterisk 1.6.0.4-rc1 was released yesterday prior to the
security update. That release has been removed as there will be no 1.6.0.4
release, but rather will be reincarnated as 1.6.0.6-rc1. The reason for
the dead release is to avoid 5 digit release numbers.

ChangeLogs for the various releases are available at:

Thank you for your continued support of Asterisk!

1.4.23.1 doesn't seem to work for me.

I did an in-place upgrade of Asterisk 1.4.21 and upgraded to the latest 
zaptel as well. Incoming calls stopped working. Whenever an extension was 
trying to pickup the phone by doing a group pickup with *8 the extension 
just got dead audio and the next phone in the group stared ringing.

I was running 1.4.23.1 with the latest FreePBX.

1.4.22.2 is working fine.

(Yes i know zaptel was replaced by DAHDI but upgrading is a PITA)
