How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable asterisk to version 1:1.8.4.2-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream asterisk package and not the asterisk package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:unstable relevant fixed versions and status.

reqresp_parser.c in the SIP channel driver in Asterisk Open Source 1.8.x before 1.8.4.2 does not initialize certain strings, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via a malformed Contact header.
