[Comment 1 Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) 2007-04-25 12:24:03 UTC]

ASA-2007-010 doesn't apply since we don't have 1.4.x in portage and previous versions aren't affected.

[Comment 2 Rajiv Aaron Manglani (RETIRED) 2007-04-25 13:25:55 UTC]

ASA-2007-011 was fixed in gentoo bug 171467.

[Comment 3 Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) 2007-04-30 12:36:46 UTC]

asterisk-1.2.17 contains fixes for ASA-2007-011 and ASA-2007-012.
it does not contain fixes for ael (bug #171884) however - even asterisk 1.2.18 lacks fixes for this.

[Comment 4 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) 2007-04-30 13:17:18 UTC]

Arches please test and mark stable. Target keywords are:

asterisk-1.2.17.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~alpha ~amd64 ~hppa ~ppc sparc x86"

[Comment 5 Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) 2007-04-30 19:16:57 UTC]

sparc stable.

[Comment 6 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2007-05-01 09:18:38 UTC]

x86 stable

[Comment 7 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) 2007-05-01 12:11:18 UTC]

This one is ready for GLSA decision. I vote YES.

[Comment 8 Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2007-05-02 11:21:52 UTC]

I'm voting no.
marginal software - specific configuration (C3) and a specific action to cause a DoS.

[Comment 9 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) 2007-05-02 12:17:51 UTC]

I fail to see the specific configuration for ASA-2007-011, am I just overlooking something?

[Comment 10 Matt Drew (RETIRED) 2007-05-02 12:22:15 UTC]

I vote yes - it may be marginal, but for people who are using it, this is very critical software (911 calls, etc), and the SIP DoS could be a huge problem.

[Comment 11 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) 2007-05-02 12:36:00 UTC]

2 YES votes and 1 NO vote. Lets have a GLSA.

voip we forgot 1.x, should that be bumped or will the comment on GLSA 200704-01 suffice?

[Comment 12 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) 2007-05-02 12:38:56 UTC]

Seems like aetius and I overlooked comment #2.

Agreeing with Daniel then and reverting to a full NO and closing. Feel free to reopen if you disagree.

[Comment 13 Rajiv Aaron Manglani (RETIRED) 2007-05-02 20:21:54 UTC]

asterisk 1.0.12 (and our -r2) is vulnerable to ASA-2007-012 but the risk is minimal. the manager interface is typically not exposed outside trusted networks, and not enabled by default.

i will patch in our cvs. no glsa required.

[Comment 14 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) 2007-05-03 18:22:27 UTC]

Rajiv please comment here once it is done and I will call arches.

[Comment 15 Rajiv Aaron Manglani (RETIRED) 2007-05-06 23:09:54 UTC]

asterisk 1.0.12 is now package masked and will not be patched. closing.
