Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Nortel Multimedia Communication Server (MSC) 5100 version 3.0.13

Description The issue allows remote attackers to spoof and redirect VoIP calls due to a lack of credential verification during call placement. This might be related to the snoop command.

Recommendations For version 3.0.13, consider restricting access to call placement functionality until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, limiting the use of the snoop command might help minimize the risk of exploitation.
