          CVE Name        

    Description  A remote memory exhaustion can be triggered by sending an    
                 SCCP packet to Asterisk system with “chan_skinny” enabled    
                 that is larger than the length of the SCCP header but        
                 smaller than the packet length specified in the header. The  
                 loop that reads the rest of the packet doesn’t detect that   
                 the call to read() returned end-of-file before the expected  
                 number of bytes and continues infinitely. The “partial       
                 data” message logging in that tight loop causes Asterisk to  
                 exhaust all available memory.                                

    Resolution  If support for the SCCP protocol is not required, remove or   
                disable the module.                                           
                                                                              
                If support for SCCP is required, an upgrade to Asterisk will  
                be necessary.
