CVE-2017-9358: n/a vulnerability

CVE-2017-9358: A memory exhaustion vulnerability exists in Asterisk Open Source 13.x before 13.15.1 and 14.x before 14.4.1...

A memory exhaustion vulnerability exists in Asterisk Open Source 13.x before 13.15.1 and 14.x before 14.4.1 and Certified Asterisk 13.13 before 13.13-cert4, which can be triggered by sending specially crafted SCCP packets causing an infinite loop and leading to memory exhaustion (by message logging in that loop).

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE can let an attacker crash or degrade an affected Asterisk phone system by forcing memory exhaustion. The issue is tied to crafted SCCP packets and can affect call availability, not data confidentiality. The source bundle does not show active exploitation or a CVSS score. Exposure is most likely where affected Asterisk versions are still deployed and SCCP traffic can reach the system. Internet-facing or broadly reachable PBX infrastructure raises urgency because availability is operationally important. Prioritize remediation for exposed or business-critical Asterisk systems because the likely impact is voice service disruption. Internal-only, non-SCCP, or already upgraded systems are lower priority, but should still be verified. Mitigation focus: Upgrade to Asterisk Open Source 13.15.1, 14.4.1, or later supported releases.; Upgrade Certified Asterisk 13.13 deployments to 13.13-cert4 or later supported releases.; Review AST-2017-004 for vendor-specific guidance and supported upgrade paths..
