Descriptions

The pa_rtp_recv function in modules/rtp/rtp.c in the module-rtp-recv module in PulseAudio 5.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and abort) via an empty UDP packet.

La función pa_rtp_recv en modules/rtp/rtp.c en el módulo module-rtp-recv en PulseAudio 5.0 y anteriores permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (fallo de aserción y abortar) a través de un paquete UDP vacío.

PulseAudio versions shipped in mbs2 were vulnerable to a remote RTP attack which could crash the PulseAudio server simply by sending an empty UDP packet. Additionally, the version of PulseAudio shipped in mbs2 was a pre-release version of PulseAudio v5 and has been updated to the official final version.
