Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in memory consumption, via a large number of SIP INVITE requests. This triggers the creation of many sessions.
Recommendations For Microsoft Communicator, consider restricting the number of incoming SIP INVITE requests to prevent excessive session creation until a fix is available.
