Hi List,

"FreeSWITCH is a scalable open source cross-platform telephony platform
designed to route and interconnect popular communication protocols using
audio, video, text or any other form of media."

FreeSWITCH having issues handling overly long Route header value which
results in segmentation fault.
This can be also considered as a DoS vulnerability because it is possible
to remotely crash FreeSWITCH.

Affected version: FreeSWITCH Version
1.2.0-rc2+git~20120731T213556Z~e97da8e20a (1.2.0-rc2; git at commit
e97da8e20a on Tue, 31 Jul 2012 21:35:56 Z)
Later or previous commits might also affected.

The issue have been reported to the FreeSWITCH developers and it is already
fixed in the latest commit.

To test if you have a vulnerable build do the following:

- Prepare an INVITE request containing a Route header with the value
generated by the following command: perl -e "print 'A,' x 15000"
- Send the prepared INVITE request to port 5060

Regards,
Zsolt Imre
