Asterisk Manager Interface Command Processing Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Asterisk Manager Interface Command Processing Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Asterisk manager interface is prone to a remote buffer overflow vulnerability. The issue manifests due to a lack of sufficient boundary checks performed by command line interface processing routines. Reports indicate that the issue may only be exploited if the manager interface is accessible and an attacker is able to write commands to the interface.

Under certain circumstances a remote attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected software.
