How to fix
Disable live SIP packet capture if the source is untrusted; process only pcap files from verified sources until a patched version is deployed.
Technical details
An off-by-one error in the length check of sip_check_packet and sip_validate_packet functions allows a SIP payload of exactly 10240 bytes (MAX_SIP_PAYLOAD) to be copied into a fixed-size stack buffer without a NUL terminator. When the buffer is later passed to regexec as a C string, it reads past the buffer boundary until finding a zero byte in adjacent stack memory, causing an out-of-bounds read. The vulnerability is reachable from untrusted network packets or pcap files with no prior authentication.
Affected products
- Irontec sngrep through 1.9.0
