Asterisk Project Security Advisory - AST-2016-003

Asterisk Project Security Advisory - AST-2016-003
Posted Feb 6, 2016
Authored by Richard Mudgett, Walter Dokes, Torrey Searle | Site asterisk.org

Asterisk Project Security Advisory - If no UDPTL packets are lost there is no problem. However, a lost packet causes Asterisk to use the available error correcting redundancy packets. If those redundancy packets have zero length then Asterisk uses an uninitialized buffer pointer and length value which can cause invalid memory accesses later when the packet is copied.
