CVE Name CVE-2014-2287
Description An attacker can use all available file descriptors using
SIP INVITE requests.
Knowledge required to achieve the attack:
* Valid account credentials or anonymous dial in
* A valid extension that can be dialed from the SIP account
Trigger conditions:
* chan_sip configured with "session-timers" set to
"originate" or "accept"
** The INVITE request must contain either a Session-Expires
or a Min-SE header with malformed values or values
disallowed by the system's configuration.
* chan_sip configured with "session-timers" set to "refuse"
** The INVITE request must offer "timer" in the "Supported"
header
Asterisk will respond with code 400, 420, or 422 for
INVITEs meeting this criteria. Each INVITE meeting these
conditions will leak a channel and several file
descriptors. The file descriptors cannot be released
without restarting Asterisk which may allow intrusion
detection systems to be bypassed by sending the requests
slowly.
Resolution Upgrade to a version with the patch integrated or apply the
appropriate patch.
