Information seems a bit sparse, but SineApps reports:

Asterisk 1.4.1 has been released as well as Asterisk 1.2.16 and Zaptel 1.2.15. These include bugfixes as well as a solution to the recently discovered security hole.

I will post further information about it in around a week, but you should all upgrade your servers before then.

  Update: TrixBox, packaged Asterisk and OpenPBX are affected too:
 
  Update: Vulnerability is a remote DOS (segfaults Asterisk):
