The following security vulnerabilities were resolved in these versions:


  There is a buffer overflow vulnerability in dns_srv and dns_naptr functions of
  Asterisk that allows an attacker to crash Asterisk via a specially crafted DNS
  SRV or NAPTR response. The attacker���s request causes Asterisk to segfault
  and crash.
