Bugging Catches Up To SIP Phones

SkiifGeek writes "After news at the end of last year that mobile phones could be remotely eavesdropped, and there being a long history of remote eavesdropping possible on normal telephones, it was only a matter of time until VoIP devices were found to be eavesdropable (whether intentionally or not). In the last week there have been several exploit code releases, and it seems that some vendors who chose to write their own SIP networking stacks are at risk of their devices being easily eavesdropped on."
