[asterisk-users] AST-2017-009: Buffer overflow in pjproject header parsing can cause crash in Asterisk
Asterisk Project Security Advisory - AST-2017-009 Product Asterisk Summary Buffer overflow in pjproject header parsing can cause crash in Asterisk Nature of Advisory Denial of Service Susceptibility Remote Unauthenticated Sessions Severity Critical Exploits Known No Reported On October 5, 2017 Reported By Youngsung Kim at LINE Corporation Posted On Last Updated On October 25, 2017 Advisory Contact gjoseph AT digium DOT com CVE Name Description By carefully crafting invalid values in the Cseq and the Via header port, pjproject???s packet parsing code can create strings larger than the buffer allocated to hold them. This will usually cause Asterisk to crash immediately. The packets do not have to be authenticated. Resolution Stricter validation is now done on strings that represent numeric values before they are converted to intrinsic types. Invalid values now cause packet processing to stop and error messages to be emitted.
