Asterisk SIP Killer

This exploit causes Asterisk to segfault by sending a specially crafted REGISTER request. The bug that this exploit targets has been patched in release 1.2.16 and 1.4.1. The exploit sends a REGISTER request with specific headers and causes a segmentation fault in the register_verify function in chan_sip.c.

Mitigation:

Apply the patch provided in release 1.2.16 or 1.4.1 to fix the vulnerability.
