Vulnerability in the parse_to_param() function

High
razvancrainea published GHSA-qvj2-vqrg-f5jx Mar 15, 2023

Package

opensips (OpenSIPS Core)

Affected versions

<=3.2

Patched versions

3.1.7, 3.2.4

Description

When the function append_hf handles a SIP message with a malformed To header, a call to the function abort() is performed resulting in a crash. This is due to the following check in data_lump.c:399 in the function anchor_lump.

The payload that crashes the server is:

OPTIONS sip:127.0.0.1 SIP/2.0<CRLF>
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 192.168.1.223:59589;rport;branch=z9hG4bK-dnOo7rULZLiOjRDh<CRLF>
To: a;a="T\

Impact

An attacker abusing this vulnerability will crash OpenSIPS leading to Denial of Service. It affects configurations containing functions that make use of the affected code, such as the function append_hf.

Patches

This issue has been fixed by commit cb56694.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
