This flaw can be used by an attacker to gain control over EIP and execute arbitrary code.
2. Severity : Critical
3. Products affected
- sipXtapi: all version compiled before 24 of march 2006
- PingTel products
- AOL Triton
4. Patch Availability :
A patch is available within the source tree and the affected products of PingTel and AOL
have beed updated.
