GHSA-mxgm-8c6f-5p8f: Asterisk: Stack buffer overflow in res_xmpp XMPP namespace prefix handling
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 resxmpp XMPP namespace prefix handling using carefully crafted packets. The resxmpp 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.
