CVSS v3.1
Official Description
The PJSIP channel driver in Asterisk Open Source 12.x before 12.1.1, when qualify_frequency "is enabled on an AOR and the remote SIP server challenges for authentication of the resulting OPTIONS request," allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a PJSIP endpoint that does not have an associated outgoing request.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2014-2288 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
