Fedora EPEL 6 Security Update: asterisk-1.8.31.1-1.el6

Resolved Bugs
1154895 – asterisk vulnerable to CVE-2014-3566/POODLE (AST-2014-011)<br
* Tue Oct 21 2014 Jeffrey C. Ollie – 1.8.31.1-1:
The Asterisk Development Team has announced security releases for Certified
Asterisk 1.8.28 and 11.6 and Asterisk 1.8, 11, 12, and 13. The available
security releases are released as versions 1.8.28-cert2, 11.6-cert7, 1.8.31.1,
11.13.1, 12.6.1, and 13.0.0-beta3.
These releases are available for immediate download at
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases
The release of these versions resolves the following security vulnerability:
* AST-2014-011: Asterisk Susceptibility to POODLE Vulnerability
Asterisk is susceptible to the POODLE vulnerability in two ways:
1) The res_jabber and res_xmpp module both use SSLv3 exclusively for their
encrypted connections.
2) The core TLS handling in Asterisk, which is used by the chan_sip channel
driver, Asterisk Manager Interface (AMI), and Asterisk HTTP Server, by
default allow a TLS connection to fallback to SSLv3. This allows for a
MITM to potentially force a connection to fallback to SSLv3, exposing it
to the POODLE vulnerability.
These issues have been resolved in the versions released in conjunction with
this security advisory.
For more information about the details of this vulnerability, please read
security advisory AST-2014-011, which was released at the same time as this
announcement.

* Tue Oct 21 2014 Jeffrey C. Ollie – 1.8.28.2-1:
The Asterisk Development Team has announced security releases for Certified
Asterisk 1.8.15, 11.6, and Asterisk 1.8, 11, and 12. The available security
releases are released as versions 1.8.15-cert7, 11.6-cert4, 1.8.28.2, 11.10.2,
and 12.3.2.
These releases are available for immediate download at
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases
These releases resolve security vulnerabilities that were previously fixed in
1.8.15-cert6, 11.6-cert3, 1.8.28.1, 11.10.1, and 12.3.1. Unfortunately, the fix
for AST-2014-007 inadvertently introduced a regression in Asterisk’s TCP and TLS
handling that prevented Asterisk from sending data over these transports. This
regression and the security vulnerabilities have been fixed in the versions
specified in this release announcement.
The security patches for AST-2014-007 have been updated with the fix for the
regression, and are available at http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/security
Please note that the release of these versions resolves the following security
vulnerabilities:
* AST-2014-005: Remote Crash in PJSIP Channel Driver’s Publish/Subscribe
Framework
* AST-2014-006: Permission Escalation via Asterisk Manager User Unauthorized
Shell Access
* AST-2014-007: Denial of Service via Exhaustion of Allowed Concurrent HTTP
Connections
* AST-2014-008: Denial of Service in PJSIP Channel Driver Subscriptions
For more information about the details of these vulnerabilities, please read
security advisories AST-2014-005, AST-2014-006, AST-2014-007, and AST-2014-008,
which were released with the previous versions that addressed these
vulnerabilities.

* Tue Oct 21 2014 Jeffrey C. Ollie – 1.8.28.1-1:
The Asterisk Development Team has announced security releases for Certified
Asterisk 1.8.15, 11.6, and Asterisk 1.8, 11, and 12. The available security
releases are released as versions 1.8.15-cert6, 11.6-cert3, 1.8.28.1, 11.10.1,
and 12.3.1.
These releases are available for immediate download at
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases
The release of these versions resolves the following issue:
* AST-2014-007: Denial of Service via Exhaustion of Allowed Concurrent HTTP
Connections
Establishing a TCP or TLS connection to the configured HTTP or HTTPS port
respectively in http.conf and then not sending or completing a HTTP request
will tie up a HTTP session. By doing this repeatedly until the maximum number
of open HTTP sessions is reached, legitimate requests are blocked.
Additionally, the release of 11.6-cert3, 11.10.1, and 12.3.1 resolves the
following issue:
* AST-2014-006: Permission Escalation via Asterisk Manager User Unauthorized
Shell Access
Manager users can execute arbitrary shell commands with the MixMonitor manager
action. Asterisk does not require system class authorization for a manager
user to use the MixMonitor action, so any manager user who is permitted to use
manager commands can potentially execute shell commands as the user executing
the Asterisk process.
Additionally, the release of 12.3.1 resolves the following issues:
* AST-2014-005: Remote Crash in PJSIP Channel Driver’s Publish/Subscribe
Framework
A remotely exploitable crash vulnerability exists in the PJSIP channel
driver’s pub/sub framework. If an attempt is made to unsubscribe when not
currently subscribed and the endpoint’s “sub_min_expiry” is set to zero,
Asterisk tries to create an expiration timer with zero seconds, which is not
allowed, so an assertion raised.
* AST-2014-008: Denial of Service in PJSIP Channel Driver Subscriptions
When a SIP transaction timeout caused a subscription to be terminated, the
action taken by Asterisk was guaranteed to deadlock the thread on which SIP
requests are serviced. Note that this behavior could only happen on
established subscriptions, meaning that this could only be exploited if an
attacker bypassed authentication and successfully subscribed to a real
resource on the Asterisk server.
These issues and their resolutions are described in the security advisories.
For more information about the details of these vulnerabilities, please read
security advisories AST-2014-005, AST-2014-006, AST-2014-007, and AST-2014-008,
