[cisco-voip] Understanding a Defect's Affected Versions

[Ryan Ratliff (rratliff)]

it's up to the discretion of the bug author.  <--------------

This means it’s accuracy varies greatly by product and even bug author.  For UCM you should always assume you are vulnerable if the fixed-in version is higher than what you are currently running unless the bug description clearly states otherwise or the feature impacted by the bug doesn’t exist in your version.

In reference to this defect:

https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCuv45722

Can you help me understand what this means as far as all affected versions?

On the surface, it would appear that it's only affecting 9.1(2).  However, with a fixed in version being way out in 11.5, that would also indicate to me that an upgrade to 10.5(2)SU2a, as an example, would not fix this issue.

Does Cisco imply all versions affected between the listed affected versions and the fixed in version?  Or, should this defect list all affected versions?

I cannot recall what I've heard about this in the past.  I'm almost guessing there's no exact science to it, and it's up to the discretion of the bug author.

Thanks for your help.
