main/rtp.c in Asterisk Open Source 1.6.1 before 1.6.1.2 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an RTP text frame
without a certain delimiter, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference
and the subsequent calculation of an invalid pointer.


Note: the upstream advisory indicates that only 1.6.1.x is affected, so this only affects Fedora 11 and rawhide (Fedora 10 has 1.6.0.5).  Upstream patch to correct the issue:

Also note that 1.6.1.2 release corrects this issue as well.
