Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2008-6140 is a remote denial-of-service issue in the SIP handling of Avaya one-X Desktop Edition 2.1.0.78. A successful attack can crash the application, potentially disrupting voice communications for affected users. The public bundle does not provide CVSS, root cause, patch version, or detailed attack conditions. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Avaya one-X Desktop Edition 2.1.0.78 installations that process SIP traffic. Risk is higher where clients can receive SIP messages from untrusted networks or poorly segmented voice infrastructure. Treat this as a targeted legacy communications availability risk. Prioritize if Avaya one-X Desktop Edition 2.1.0.78 remains in use, especially in operationally critical voice environments. Urgency is lower where the product is absent or isolated. Mitigation focus: Check Avaya ASA-2008-370 and current vendor guidance for supported fixes or upgrades.; Identify and retire or upgrade Avaya one-X Desktop Edition 2.1.0.78 installations.; Restrict SIP traffic to trusted voice infrastructure and necessary peers..
