Asterisk is an open-source private branch exchange (PBX). Prior to versions 18.24.3, 20.9.3, and 21.4.3 of Asterisk and versions 18.9-cert12 and 20.7-cert2 of certified-asterisk, if Asterisk attempts to send a SIP request to a URI whose host portion starts with .1 or [.1], and res_resolver_unbound is loaded, Asterisk will crash with a SEGV. To receive a patch, users should upgrade to one of the following versions: 18.24.3, 20.9.3, 21.4.3, certified-18.9-cert12, certified-20.7-cert2. Two workarounds are available. Disable res_resolver_unbound by setting noload = res_resolver_unbound.so in modules.conf, or set rewrite_contact = yes on all PJSIP endpoints. NOTE: This may not be appropriate for all Asterisk configurations.
The product does not check the return value from a method or function, which can prevent it from detecting unexpected states and conditions.
