Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 28/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 3.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 89.4% of all records.
- Fixed version: asterisk (Debian:14) 1:1.8.3.3-1; asterisk (Debian:5.0) 1:1.4.21.2~dfsg-3+lenny2.1; asterisk (Debian:6.0) 1:1.6.2.9-2+squeeze2.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to asterisk (Debian:14) 1:1.8.3.3-1; asterisk (Debian:5.0) 1:1.4.21.2~dfsg-3+lenny2.1; asterisk (Debian:6.0) 1:1.6.2.9-2+squeeze2 or later.

Multiple stack-based and heap-based buffer overflows in the (1) decode_open_type and (2) udptl_rx_packet functions in main/udptl.c in Asterisk Open Source 1.4.x before 1.4.39.2, 1.6.1.x before 1.6.1.22, 1.6.2.x before 1.6.2.16.2, and 1.8 before 1.8.2.4; Business Edition C.x.x before C.3.6.3; AsteriskNOW 1.5; and s800i (Asterisk Appliance), when T.38 support is enabled, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted UDPTL packet.
