Name : asterisk
Product : Fedora 15
Version : 1.8.4.4
Release : 2.fc15
URL : http://www.asterisk.org/
Summary : The Open Source PBX
Description :
Asterisk is a complete PBX in software. It runs on Linux and provides
all of the features you would expect from a PBX and more. Asterisk
does voice over IP in three protocols, and can interoperate with
almost all standards-based telephony equipment using relatively
inexpensive hardware.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Remove systemd dependencies from EL6 and F15
The Asterisk Development Team has announced the release of Asterisk versions
1.4.41.2, 1.6.2.18.2, and 1.8.4.4, which are security releases.
These releases are available for immediate download at
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases
The release of Asterisk 1.4.41.2, 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
the security advisories AST-2011-008, AST-2011-009, and AST-2011-010, which were
