CVE Name Pending
Description When handling an INVITE with Replaces message the
res_pjsip_refer module incorrectly assumes that it will be
operating on a channel that has just been created. If the
INVITE with Replaces message is sent in-dialog after a
session has been established this assumption will be
incorrect. The res_pjsip_refer module will then hang up a
channel that is actually owned by another thread. When this
other thread attempts to use the just hung up channel it
will end up using freed channel which will likely cause a
crash.
Resolution If REFER support is not required the res_pjsip_refer module
can be unloaded to limit exposure otherwise the
res_pjsip_refer module has been patched so it will not allow
an in-dialog INVITE with Replaces message to be processed.
