CVE-2016-3261 [MEDIUM] Internet Explorer Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Internet Explorer Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Description: An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Internet Explorer improperly handles page content, which could allow an attacker to detect the existence of specific files on the user's system.
To exploit the vulnerability, in a web-based attack scenario, an attacker could host a website that is used to attempt to exploit the vulnerability. In addition, compromised websites and websites that accept or host user-provided content could contain specially crafted content that could exploit the vulnerability. In all cases, however, an attacker would have no way to force users to view the attacker-controlled content. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to take action. For example, an attacker could trick users

CVE-2016-9938 asterisk: Authentication Bypass due to improper content stripping

CVE-2016-9938 [MEDIUM] CVE-2016-9938 asterisk: Authentication Bypass due to improper content stripping
CVE-2016-9938 asterisk: Authentication Bypass due to improper content stripping
The chan_sip channel driver has a liberal definition for whitespace when attempting to strip the content between a SIP header name and a colon character. Rather than following RFC 3261 and stripping only spaces and horizontal tabs, Asterisk treats any non-printable ASCII character as if it were whitespace. This means that headers such as
Contact\x01:
will be seen as a valid Contact header.
This mostly does not pose a problem until Asterisk is placed in tandem with an authenticating SIP proxy. In such a case, a crafty combination of valid and invalid To headers can cause a proxy to allow an INVITE request into Asterisk without authentication since it believes the request is an in-dialog request.
