[asterisk-users] Important security alert: update your dialplans now!

[Olle E. Johansson]

While we continue discussing all possible solutions to this and build an expanding knowledgebase, I would like to repeat myself and kindly ask everyone that blogs, twitters, talks and teaches about Asterisk to please spread the word and the links. Later today, there will be an official Asterisk Security Advisory published on http://www.asterisk.org. Take this as an oppurtunity to repeat yourselves and make sure that no Asterisk admin anywhere talking any language can miss this information. 

If you are involved in a third-party project or commercial company that builds a GUI or anything that manages Asterisk dialplans, please make sure that your users are aware of this and that your project also releases information about this and if needed, updates your platform. If you are a distributor of Asterisk-related equipment, please don't hesitate to inform your resellers and customers.

Let's use all the resources we have to make sure that we limit the damage that this issue causes. And thank you to all of you that has already been forwarding information about this issue.

Best regards,
/Olle
