Summary

Red Hat Security Advisory: opal security update

Notes

Topic

Updated opal packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

Details

Open Phone Abstraction Library (opal) is implementation of various telephony and video communication protocols for use over packet based networks. In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, the Ekiga application uses opal. A flaw was discovered in the way opal handled certain Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) packets. An attacker could use this flaw to crash an application, such as Ekiga, which is linked with opal. (CVE-2007-4924) Users should upgrade to these updated opal packages which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.

Summary

The Open Phone Abstraction Library (opal), as used by (1) Ekiga before 2.0.10 and (2) OpenH323 before 2.2.4, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an invalid Content-Length header field in Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) packets, which causes a \0 byte to be written to an "attacker-controlled address."
