* Fix Deadlock with attended transfer of SIP call
 (Closes issue #18837. Reported, patched by alecdavis. Tested by Irontec, ZX81,
 cmaj)

* Fixes thread blocking issue in the sip TCP/TLS implementation.
 (Closes issue #18497. Reported by vois. Patched by dvossel. Tested by vois,
 rossbeer, kowalma, Freddi_Fonet)

* Be more tolerant of what URI we accept for call completion PUBLISH requests.
 (Closes issue #18946. Reported by GeorgeKonopacki. Patched by mmichelson)

* Fix a nasty chanspy bug which was causing a channel leak every time a spied on
 channel made a call.
 (Closes issue #18742. Reported by jkister. Tested by jcovert, jrose)

* This patch fixes a bug with MeetMe behavior where the 'P' option for always
 prompting for a pin is ignored for the first caller.
 (Closes issue #18070. Reported by mav3rick. Patched by bbryant)

* Fix issue where Asterisk does not hangup a channel after endpoint hangs up. If
 the call that the dialplan started an AGI script for is hungup while the AGI
 script is in the middle of a command then the AGI script is not notified of
 the hangup.
 (Closes issue #17954, #18492. Reported by mn3250, devmod. Patched by rmudgett)

 Mudgett)

 between participants. Parenthesis in the wrong position. Regression from issue

- releases.

-
- The release of Asterisk 1.4.41.2, 1.6.2.18.2, and 1.8.4.4 resolves the
- following issue:
-
- AST-2011-011: Asterisk may respond differently to SIP requests from an
- invalid SIP user than it does to a user configured on the system, even
- when the alwaysauthreject option is set in the configuration. This can
- leak information about what SIP users are valid on the Asterisk
- system.
-
- For more information about the details of this vulnerability, please
- read the security advisory AST-2011-011, which was released at the
- same time as this announcement.

- The Asterisk Development Team has announced the release of Asterisk versions
- 1.4.41.1, 1.6.2.18.1, and 1.8.4.3, which are security releases.
-
- These releases are available for immediate download at
- http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases
-
- The release of Asterisk 1.4.41.1, 1.6.2.18, and 1.8.4.3 resolves several issues
- as outlined below:
-
- * AST-2011-008: If a remote user sends a SIP packet containing a null,
-  Asterisk assumes available data extends past the null to the
-  end of the packet when the buffer is actually truncated when
-  copied.  This causes SIP header parsing to modify data past
-  the end of the buffer altering unrelated memory structures.
-  This vulnerability does not affect TCP/TLS connections.
-  -- Resolved in 1.6.2.18.1 and 1.8.4.3
-
- * AST-2011-009: A remote user sending a SIP packet containing a Contact header
-  with a missing left angle bracket (<) causes Asterisk to
-  access a null pointer.
-  -- Resolved in 1.8.4.3
-
- * AST-2011-010: A memory address was inadvertently transmitted over the
-  network via IAX2 via an option control frame and the remote party would try
-  to access it.
-  -- Resolved in 1.4.41.1, 1.6.2.18.1, and 1.8.4.3
-
- The issues and resolutions are described in the AST-2011-008, AST-2011-009, and
- AST-2011-010 security advisories.
-
- For more information about the details of these vulnerabilities, please read
