HighMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
PJSIP versions prior to 2.11.1
Description
The issue is related to the SSL socket in PJSIP, a free and open source multimedia communication library. It involves a race condition between callback and destroy due to the accepted socket having no group lock, and the SSL socket parent/listener may get destroyed during handshake. These issues occur intermittently in heavy load TLS connections and cause a crash, resulting in a denial of service.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.11.1, update to version 2.11.1 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of heavy load TLS connections to minimize the risk of exploitation.
