Asterisk: Stack buffer overflow in res_xmpp XMPP namespace prefix handling
Impact
Asterisk is an open source private branch exchange and telephony toolkit. Prior to Asterisk 20.20.1, 21.12.3, 22.10.1, 23.4.1 and Certified Asterisk 20.7-cert11, 22.8-cert3, an authenticated attacker may cause a stack buffer overflow in res_xmpp XMPP namespace prefix handling using carefully crafted packets. The res_xmpp module must be loaded, an XMPP connection must be configured in xmpp.conf, and the attacker must have an XMPP account on the same or a federated server. This issue is fixed in Asterisk 20.20.1, 21.12.3, 22.10.1, 23.4.1 and Certified Asterisk 20.7-cert11, 22.8-cert3.
