CVE Name
Description If a compound RTCP packet is received containing more than
one report (for example a Receiver Report and a Sender
Report) the RTCP stack will incorrectly store report
information outside of allocated memory potentially causing
a crash.
For all versions of Asterisk this vulnerability requires an
active call to be established.
For versions of Asterisk 13.17.2, 14.6.2, 15.0.0,
13.13-cert6 and greater an additional level of security is
placed upon RTCP packets. If the probation period for
incoming RTP traffic has passed any received RTCP packets
must contain the same SSRC as the RTP traffic. If the RTCP
packets do not then they are dropped. This ensures other
parties can not inject RTCP packets without they themselves
establishing an active call.
Resolution The RTCP stack has been changed so the report information is
always stored in allocated memory. The provided patches can
be applied to the appropriate version or the latest version
of Asterisk can be installed to receive the fix.
