Microsoft Communicator Denial of Service Vulnerability
Microsoft Communicator allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large number of SIP INVITE requests, which trigger the creation of many sessions.
Mitigation:
Ensure that the server is configured to limit the number of SIP INVITE requests that can be made in a given period of time.
