CVE Name CVE-2019-18976
Description If Asterisk receives a re-invite initiating T.38
faxing and has a port of 0 and no c line in the SDP, a
crash will occur.
Modules Affected res_pjsip_t38.c
Resolution If T.38 faxing is not needed, then the “t38_udptl”
configuration option in pjsip.conf can be set to “no” to
disable the functionality. This option automatically
defaults to “no” and would have to be manually turned on to
experience this crash.
If T.38 faxing is needed, then Asterisk should be upgraded
to a fixed version.
