  - OpenSIPS is a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) server implementation. Prior to versions 3.1.8 and 3.2.5,
    when a specially crafted SIP message is processed by the function `rewrite_ruri`, a crash occurs due to a
    segmentation fault. This issue causes the server to crash. It affects configurations containing functions
    that make use of the affected code, such as the function `setport`. This issue has been fixed in version
    3.1.8 and 3.2.5. (CVE-2023-27597)
