[OT] Asterisk security alert

[QueueMetrics]

Hello everyone,
this is not exactly related to QueueMetrics, but being an important Asterisk issue, we are posting it here.

Many VoIP protocols support a large character set, that may cause harm in your dialplan

You need to change entries that look like:

Code: [Select]

[incoming-from-voip]
exten => _X., 1, dial(SIP/${EXTEN})
