Buffer overflow in CounterPath eyeBeam SIP Softphone allows remote attackers to (1) cause a denial of service (device crash) via SIP INVITE commands with a long header field name sent during startup and (2) cause a denial of service (device hang or crash) via SIP INVITE commands with a long header field name sent during a call.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
