CVE-2017-16671 Information

Description

A Buffer Overflow issue was discovered in Asterisk Open Source 13 before 13.18.1 14 before 14.7.1 and 15 before 15.1.1 and Certified Asterisk 13.13 before 13.13-cert7. No size checking is done when setting the user field for Party B on a CDR. Thus it is possible for someone to use an arbitrarily large string and write past the end of the user field storage buffer. NOTE: this is different from CVE-2017-7617 which was only about the Party A buffer.
