  More Vulnerabilities with Pingtel Xpressa SIP-based IP Phones
------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

 <http://www.pingtel.com> Pingtel develops intelligent Java-based
voice-over-IP phones and soft phones for service providers and
enterprises.

Using the vulnerabilities enumerated within this advisory it is possible
to jeopardize critical telephony infrastructure based on Pingtel's Xpressa
SIP-based IP phones and soft phones. Additionally, certain vulnerabilities
allow an attacker to take complete control over an IP Phone or a soft
phone node either directly or by circumventing other SIP entities on the
network by abusing the 'node's credentials'.

The most severe issue discussed is the way an attacker can exploit
vulnerabilities with <http://my.pingtel.com> MyPingtel Portal to subvert
a VoIP infrastructure which includes IP Phones and/or softphones from
Pingtel.
