# CVE-2025-20350: Memory corruption in Cisco Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Software > Unauthenticated remote attackers can cause a denial of service on Cisco IP phones via crafted HTTP packets if Web Access is enabled. - **Severity:** High 7.5 (`CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H`) - **Exploited in the wild:** Not known - **Login needed:** Not needed - **Attackable:** Over the internet - **Victim action needed:** Not needed - **Fix available:** No - **Published:** 15 Oct 2025 - **Updated:** 15 Oct 2025 - **Also known as:** GHSA-c6wg-233f-cjj6 ## What is CVE-2025-20350? CVE-2025-20350 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Cisco Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Software, published on 15 Oct 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim. ### Official description A vulnerability in the web UI of Cisco Desk Phone 9800 Series, Cisco IP Phone 7800 and 8800 Series, and Cisco Video Phone 8875 running Cisco SIP Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a DoS condition on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to a buffer overflow when an affected device processes HTTP packets. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTP input to the device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the device to reload, resulting in a DoS condition. Note: To exploit this vulnerability, the phone must be registered to Cisco Unified Communications Manager and have Web Access enabled. Web Access is disabled by default.

What it is: CVE-2025-20350 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Cisco Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Software, published on 15 Oct 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim. Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-20350 in the wild and no public exploit code. Affected product: Cisco Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Software. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page. Task: 1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies. 2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it. 3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead. 4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why. 5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
