Log Message:
Update to Asterisk 11.14.2: this is a security fix release.
The Asterisk Development Team has announced security releases for
Certified Asterisk 11.6 and Asterisk 11, 12, and 13. The available
security releases are released as versions 11.6-cert9, 11.14.2,
12.7.2, and 13.0.2.
The release of these versions resolves the following security vulnerability:
* AST-2014-019: Remote Crash Vulnerability in WebSocket Server
When handling a WebSocket frame the res_http_websocket module
dynamically changes the size of the memory used to allow the
provided payload to fit. If a payload length of zero was received
the code would incorrectly attempt to resize to zero. This
operation would succeed and end up freeing the memory but be
treated as a failure. When the session was subsequently torn down
this memory would get freed yet again causing a crash.
For more information about the details of this vulnerability, please read
security advisory AST-2014-019, which was released at the same time as this
announcement.
For a full list of changes in the current releases, please see the Change Logs:
