FreeBSD : asterisk -- remote heap overwrite vulnerability (1c0def84-5fb1-11db-b2e9-0008c79fa3d2)

high Nessus Plugin ID 22884

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

Adam Boileau of Security-Assessment.com reports :

The Asterisk Skinny channel driver for Cisco SCCP phones (chan_skinny.so) incorrectly validates a length value in the packet header. An integer wrap-around leads to heap overwrite, and arbitrary remote code execution as root.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
