CVE Name Pending
Description If no UDPTL packets are lost there is no problem. However,
a lost packet causes Asterisk to use the available error
correcting redundancy packets. If those redundancy packets
have zero length then Asterisk uses an uninitialized buffer
pointer and length value which can cause invalid memory
accesses later when the packet is copied.
Resolution Upgrade to a released version with the fix incorporated or
apply patch.
