| CVE Name | |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Description | The Asterisk Skinny channel driver, chan_skinny, has a |
| | remotely exploitable crash vulnerability. A segfault can |
| | occur when Asterisk receives a |
| | "CAPABILITIES_RES_MESSAGE" packet where the capabilities |
| | count is greater than the total number of items in the |
| | capabilities_res_message array. Note that this requires |
| | an authenticated session. |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Resolution | Asterisk code has been modified to limit the incoming |
| | capabilities count. |
| | |
| | Users with configured Skinny devices should upgrade to |
| | the appropriate version listed in the corrected in |
| | section of this advisory. |
