Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2014-09-19 10:53:49 UTC
From ${URL} :

    Description  When an out of call message - delivered by either the SIP    
                 or PJSIP channel driver or the XMPP stack - is handled in    
                 Asterisk, a crash can occur if the channel servicing the     
                 message is sent into the ReceiveFax dialplan application     
                 while using the res_fax_spandsp module.                      
                                                                              
                 Note that this crash does not occur when using the           
                 res_fax_digium module.                                       
                                                                              
                 While this crash technically occurs due to a configuration   
                 issue, as attempting to receive a fax from a channel driver  
                 that only contains textual information will never succeed,   
                 the likelihood of having it occur is sufficiently high as    
                 to warrant this advisory.

CVE-2014-6610 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-6610):
  Asterisk Open Source 11.x before 11.12.1 and 12.x before 12.5.1 and
  Certified Asterisk 11.6 before 11.6-cert6, when using the res_fax_spandsp
  module, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service
  (crash) via an out of call message, which is not properly handled in the
  ReceiveFax dialplan application.
