Reference URL :

Solution : Use the last ARI version or use asteriskhome 2.8

Two vulnerabilities was found in the ARI package included in the
asteriskhome Distribution. These vulnerabilities allow a user to listen
voicemail from any other users and and to disclose configuration password.

Vulnerability 1
---------------

The config file is in a public directory and not protected by default

Exploit : http://<asterisk>/recordings/includes/main.conf

This should list all the configuration of ARI. With asterisk password,
db password, admin password.

Vulnerability 2
---------------

A directory traversal/file retreival exist in the ARI web interface.
This script allow a user to download any mp3/wav/gsm on the system. No
authentification is needed, this can be used to listen voicemail from
another user.

Exploit :
http://<asterisk>/recordings/misc/audio.php?recording=/var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/<mailbox>/INBOX/msg<messageid>.wav

This flaw can also be used to verify the presence of a file on the server
Cannot use file: xxx <-- file exist bot not the good extension
404 File not found! <--- file doesn't exist

Patch
------
Both asteriskhome and ARI released fixes
