Multiple stack-based and heap-based buffer overflows in the (1) decode_open_type and (2) udptl_rx_packet functions in main/udptl.c in Asterisk Open Source 1.4.x before 1.4.39.2, 1.6.1.x before 1.6.1.22, 1.6.2.x before 1.6.2.16.2, and 1.8 before 1.8.2.4; Business Edition C.x.x before C.3.6.3; AsteriskNOW 1.5; and s800i (Asterisk Appliance), when T.38 support is enabled, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted UDPTL packet.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the ast_uri_encode function in main/utils.c in Asterisk Open Source before 1.4.38.1, 1.4.39.1, 1.6.1.21, 1.6.2.15.1, 1.6.2.16.1, 1.8.1.2, 1.8.2.; and Business Edition before C.3.6.2; when running in pedantic mode allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via crafted caller ID data in vectors involving the (1) SIP channel driver, (2) URIENCODE dialplan function, or (3) AGI dialplan function.

main/acl.c in Asterisk Open Source 1.6.0.x before 1.6.0.25, 1.6.1.x before 1.6.1.17, and 1.6.2.x before 1.6.2.5 does not properly enforce remote host access controls when CIDR notation "/0" is used in permit= and deny= configuration rules, which causes an improper arithmetic shift and might allow remote attackers to bypass ACL rules and access services from unauthorized hosts.

The design of the dialplan functionality in Asterisk Open Source 1.2.x, 1.4.x, and 1.6.x; and Asterisk Business Edition B.x.x and C.x.x, when using the ${EXTEN} channel variable and wildcard pattern matches, allows context-dependent attackers to inject strings into the dialplan using metacharacters that are injected when the variable is expanded, as demonstrated using the Dial application to process a crafted SIP INVITE message that adds an unintended outgoing channel leg. NOTE: it could be argued that this is not a vulnerability in Asterisk, but a class of vulnerabilities that can occur in any program that uses this feature without the associated filtering functionality that is already available.
