Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a remote user to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in PJSIP TCP/SDP handling when processing a SIP INVITE over a connection-oriented transport and the TCP connection closes during SDP processing. A remote user can send a specially crafted SIP INVITE and disconnect before Asterisk responds with the 200 OK to cause a denial of service.
The issue has only been reproduced when Address Sanitizer is enabled.
