Description

The Asterisk project reports: No size checking is done when setting the user field for Party B on a CDR. Thus, it is possible for someone to use an arbitrarily large string and write past the end of the user field storage buffer. The earlier AST-2017-001 advisory for the CDR user field overflow was for the Party A buffer.
