Introduction to ld-v1-00-h323-020603b.zup

This SHA512-verified software package delivers critical updates for H.323 protocol implementation on Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) v14.x compatible devices. Designed to address emerging VoIP security challenges and compliance requirements, it enhances session border controller functionality for ISR 4000 Series routers and ASR 1000 Series aggregation services routers.

The v1-00-h323-020603b build (released Q4 2024) resolves 12 CVEs identified in H.323 stack implementations, including CVE-2024-32896 (media channel hijacking vulnerability). Compatible with devices running Cisco IOS XE 17.12.1+, this update maintains backward compatibility with legacy H.323 v4 deployments while preparing systems for upcoming ETSI TS 103 548-3 standardization.
