  to a remote SIP server it is possible for a crash to occur.

  The code responsible for negotiating SDP in SIP responses incorrectly assumes that SDP negotiation
  will always be successful. If a SIP response containing an SDP that can not be negotiated is
  received a subsequent SDP negotiation on the same call can cause a crash.

  If the 'accept_multiple_sdp_answers' option in the 'system' section of pjsip.conf is set to 'yes'
  then any subsequent non-forked SIP response with SDP can trigger this crash.

  If the 'follow_early_media_fork' option in the 'system' section of pjsip.conf is set to 'yes' (the
  default) then any subsequent SIP responses with SDP from a forked destination can trigger this
  crash.

  If a 200 OK with SDP is received from a forked destination it can also trigger this crash, even if
  the 'follow_early_media_fork' option is not set to 'yes'.

  In all cases this relies on a race condition with tight timing where the second SDP negotiation
  occurs before termination of the call due to the initial SDP negotiation failure.");
