A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit a buffer overflow vulnerability by sending a specially crafted H.248/Megaco message with an oversized property parameter name. This can lead to memory corruption, potentially allowing for remote code execution or causing a denial of service (DoS) crash of the system. Exploitation requires network access to the megaco transport port on systems configured to use the flex scanner.",
