| CVE Name | CVE-2008-3263 |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Description | By flooding an Asterisk server with IAX2 'POKE' |
| | requests, an attacker may eat up all call numbers |
| | associated with the IAX2 protocol on an Asterisk server |
| | and prevent other IAX2 calls from getting through. Due |
| | to the nature of the protocol, IAX2 POKE calls will |
| | expect an ACK packet in response to the PONG packet sent |
| | in response to the POKE. While waiting for this ACK |
| | packet, this dialog consumes an IAX2 call number, as the |
| | ACK packet must contain the same call number as was |
| | allocated and sent in the PONG. |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Resolution | The implementation has been changed to no longer allocate |
| | an IAX2 call number for POKE requests. Instead, call |
| | number 1 has been reserved for all responses to POKE |
| | requests, and ACK packets referencing call number 1 will |
| | be silently dropped. |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------+

|Commentary|This vulnerability was reported to us without exploit code, less than two days before public release, with exploit |
| |code. Additionally, we were not informed of the public release of the exploit code and only learned this fact from a |
| |third party. We reiterate that this is irresponsible security disclosure, and we recommend that in the future, |
| |adequate time be given to fix any such vulnerability. Recommended reading: |
