Process crash via out-of-bounds TCP access
Published Apr 8, 2026 · Updated Apr 8, 2026
Out-of-bounds access in Kamailio before 5.8.8, 6.0.0 through 6.0.5, and 6.1.0 allows remote attackers to crash the process via TCP. The core TCP data-processing path performs an out-of-bounds memory access while handling a specially crafted packet; the affected function is undisclosed. Unauthenticated network reachability to a TCP or TLS listener is sufficient, and the reported consequence is a Kamailio process crash.
