Debian DLA-781-2 : asterisk regression update

low Nessus Plugin ID 96459

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Brad Barnett found that the recent security update of Asterisk could cause immediate SIP termination due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-2287.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 1:1.8.13.1~dfsg1-3+deb7u6.

We recommend that you upgrade your asterisk packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
