        CVE Name      

   Description When decoding UDPTL packets, multiple stack and heap based     
               arrays can be made to overflow by specially crafted packets.   
               Systems doing T.38 pass through or termination are vulnerable. 

   Resolution The UDPTL decoding routines have been modified to respect the   
              limits of exploitable arrays.                                   
                                                                              
              In asterisk versions not containing the fix for this issue,     
              disabling T.38 support will prevent this vulnerability from     
              being exploited. T.38 support can be disabled in chan_sip by    
              setting the t38pt_udptl option to "no" (it is off by default).  
                                                                              
              t38pt_udptl = no                                                
                                                                              
              The chan_ooh323 module should also be disabled by adding the    
              following line in modles.conf.                                  
                                                                              
              noload => chan_ooh323
