Looking at the code, it would appear likely for 1.8 to SIGBUS under the
right conditions currently as well, and the previous patches to this
problematic code have been applied to all branches, so I would expect this
to be relevant.

On a policy note, 'Security Fix Only' doesn't include remote crash of
Asterisk?!  I haven't been able to yet, but I'm sure some industrious
fellow could reproduce this with correctly crafted payload for DoS
purposes.


Even further OT, in the past new Asterisk versions haven't had the major
bugs ironed out until the micro rev reached double-digits, so I've been
reluctant to migrate.  I know the process has improved significantly since
then, but it's still a big move.  Anyway, sorry for the tracker noise with
this last.
