         CVE Name       CVE-2019-18790                                        

      Description     A SIP request can be sent to Asterisk that can change   
                      a SIP peer’s IP address. A REGISTER does not need to    
                      occur, and calls can be hijacked as a result. The only  
                      thing that needs to be known is the peer’s name;        
                      authentication details such as passwords do not need    
                      to be known. This vulnerability is only exploitable     
                      when the “nat” option is set to the default, or       
  
                      “auto_force_rport”.                                   
  
    Modules Affected  channels/chan_sip.c                                     

    Resolution  Using any other option value for “nat” will prevent the     
  
                attack (such as “nat=no” or “nat=force_rport”), but 
will      
                need to be tested on an individual basis to ensure that it    
                works for the user’s deployment. On the fixed versions of     
                Asterisk, it will no longer set the address of the peer       
                before authentication is successful when a SIP request comes  
                in.
