The Skype network is circulating a virus that has appeared there before: http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=198500135 . The virus sends a URL to other Skype users in the infected user's contacts, which the target Skype displays as clickable. Clicking downloads the virus. Asterisk supports features like these, in combination with certain clients (which aren't themselves Asterisk), including IM and URL redirection. Any reports of this kind of attack on Asterisk itself, or using Asterisk to support those potentially vulnerable clients? Any analysis of Asterisk's vulnerability to these? Any mitigations? --
