## Overview

Asterisk is an open source private branch exchange and telephony toolkit. Prior to Asterisk 20.20.1, 21.12.3, 22.10.1, 23.4.1 and Certified Asterisk 20.7-cert11, 22.8-cert3, an unauthenticated attacker may use reflected cross-site scripting in `phone provisioning HTTP error pages` to retrieve an authorized user's `AMI session cookie` and impersonate that user when `res_phoneprov` is enabled. The Asterisk HTTP web server, Asterisk Manager Interface (AMI), and AMI access via HTTP must all be enabled; each is disabled by default. The attacker must be able to connect to the HTTP server, which binds only to `127.0.0.1` by default even when enabled, and must convince the authorized user to click a malicious link. This issue is fixed in Asterisk 20.20.1, 21.12.3, 22.10.1, 23.4.1 and Certified Asterisk 20.7-cert11, 22.8-cert3.

## Affected

- `asterisk < 20.20.1`
- `asterisk >= 21.0.0-pre1, < 21.12.3`
- `asterisk >= 22.0.0-pre1, < 22.10.1`
- `asterisk >= 23.0.0-pre1, < 23.4.1`
- `certified-asterisk < 20.7-cert11`
- `certified-asterisk >= 22.8-cert1-pre1, < 22.8-cert3`
