         CVE Name       CVE-2019-18976                                        

      Description     If Asterisk receives a re-invite initiating T.38        
                      faxing and has a port of 0 and no c line in the SDP, a  
                      crash will occur.                                       
    Modules Affected  res_pjsip_t38.c                                         

    Resolution  If T.38 faxing is not needed, then the “t38_udptl”            
                configuration option in pjsip.conf can be set to “no” to      
                disable the functionality. This option automatically          
                defaults to “no” and would have to be manually turned on to   
                experience this crash.                                        
                                                                              
                If T.38 faxing is needed, then Asterisk should be upgraded    
                to a fixed version.
