Product: Interaction SIP Proxy
Vendor: Interactive Intelligence Inc. (http://www.inin.com)

Systems Affected: 

Vonexus Enterprise Interaction Center
Interaction SipProxy 3.0.010

Release Date: 12/21/2005

Vendor Status: 

Informed on 12/11/2005 
Initial response on 12/12/2005
Patch released on 12/18/2005

Overview:

Interaction SIP Proxy is Microsoft Windows-based software that provides basic SIP proxy and registrar functionality as 
defined in the IETF SIP-oriented RFC 3261. The Interaction SIP Proxy routes incoming SIP messages based on configurable 
dial plan and server plans, with simplified administration via Web interface.

Problem:

Hat-Squad security team has discovered a remote heap overflow in Interaction SIP Proxy. The vulnerability allows a 
remote attacker to overwrite heap memory and cause a a severe denial-of-service condition on system. Exploitation of 
this vulnerability for code execution requires a magic sequence of pre-allocations, data and size.

Technical Details:

The code in i3sipmsg.dll is responsible for handling SIP requests. The vulnerability is triggered by sending 2900 bytes 
of space (0x20) or TAB (0x9) characters as SIP version in a REGISTER request line. This will cause a heap overflow in 
SIPParser function.

A Proof of concept for this vulnerability is available at http://www.hat-squad.com/i3sip.html
