   | Description | The Asterisk STUN implementation in the RTP stack has a  |
   |             | remotely exploitable crash vulnerability. A pointer may  |
   |             | run past accessible memory if Asterisk receives a        |
   |             | specially crafted STUN packet on an active RTP port.     |
   |             |                                                          |
   |             | The code that parses the incoming STUN packets           |
   |             | incorrectly checks that the length indicated in the STUN |
   |             | attribute and the size of the STUN attribute header does |
   |             | not exceed the available data. This will cause the data  |
   |             | pointer to run past accessible memory and when accessed  |
   |             | will cause a crash.                                      |

   | Resolution | All users that have chan_sip, chan_gtalk, chan_jingle,    |
   |            | chan_h323, chan_mgcp, or chan_skinny enabled on an        |
   |            | affected version should upgrade to the appropriate        |
   |            | version listed in the correct in section of this          |
   |            | advisory.                                                 |
