          CVE Name        

    Description  A user of the Asterisk Manager Interface can bypass a        
                 security check and execute shell commands when they lack     
                 permission to do so. Under normal conditions, a user should  
                 only be able to run shell commands if that user has System   
                 class authorization. Users could bypass this restriction by  
                 using the MixMonitor application with the originate action   
                 or by using either the GetVar or Status manager actions in   
                 combination with the SHELL and EVAL functions. The patch     
                 adds checks in each affected action to verify if a user has  
                 System class authorization. If the user does not have those  
                 authorizations, Asterisk rejects the action if it detects    
                 the use of any functions or applications that run system     
                 commands.                                                    

    Resolution  Asterisk now performs checks against manager commands that    
                cause these behaviors for each of the affected actions.

          CVE Name        

    Description  In the Skinny channel driver, KEYPAD_BUTTON_MESSAGE events   
                 are queued for processing in a buffer allocated on the       
                 heap, where each DTMF value that is received is placed on    
                 the end of the buffer. Since the length of the buffer is     
                 never checked, an attacker could send sufficient             
                 KEYPAD_BUTTON_MESSAGE events such that the buffer is         
                 overrun.                                                     

    Resolution  The length of the buffer is now checked before appending a    
                value to the end of the buffer.

          CVE Name        

    Description  A remotely exploitable crash vulnerability exists in the     
                 SIP channel driver if a SIP UPDATE request is processed      
                 within a particular window of time. For this to occur, the   
                 following must take place:                                   
                                                                              
                 1. The setting 'trustrpid' must be set to True               
                                                                              
                 2. An UPDATE request must be received after a call has been  
                 terminated and the associated channel object has been        
                 destroyed, but before the SIP dialog associated with the     
                 call has been destroyed. Receiving the UPDATE request        
                 before the call is terminated or after the SIP dialog        
                 associated with the call will not cause the crash            
                 vulnerability described here.                                
                                                                              
                 3. The UPDATE request must be formatted with the             
                 appropriate headers to reflect an Asterisk connected line    
                 update. The information in the headers must reflect a        
                 different Caller ID then what was previously associated      
                 with the dialog.                                             
                                                                              
                 When these conditions are true, Asterisk will attempt to     
                 perform a connected line update with no associated channel,  
                 and will crash.                                              

    Resolution  Asterisk now ensures a channel exists before performing a     
                connected line update, when that connected line update is     
                initiated via a SIP UPDATE request.                           
                                                                              
                In Asterisk versions not containing the fix for this issue,   
                setting the 'trustrpid' setting to False will prevent this    
                crash from occurring (default is False)
