Package : srtp
CVE ID : CVE-2015-6360
Debian Bug : 807698
Randell Jesup and the Firefox team discovered that srtp, Cisco's
reference implementation of the Secure Real-time Transport Protocol
(SRTP), does not properly handle RTP header CSRC count and extension
header length. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to crash
an application linked against libsrtp, resulting in a denial of service.
For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed
in version 1.4.4+20100615~dfsg-2+deb7u2.
For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.4.5~20130609~dfsg-1.1+deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your srtp packages.
