Spoke with Steve, He says: What is described there does not appear to be a problem with the FAX protocol, even though the text says it is. They refer to problems handling DHT (define huffman table) and COM (comment) sections when they are used incorrectly. Those are tags in JPEG images. It looks like that are talking about an issue with JPEG decoders that don't allow for certain types of corrupt image, and the exploit would be specific to particular models of FAX machines. The problem would be in the JPEG decoder itself. Spandsp calls the system's JPEG library to do that decoding. Any flaw that might exist would be in that system's JPEG library.

Hi,
*Check Point researchers have discovered a vulnerability in the ITU T.30 fax protocol that could be hacked to launch a cyberattack and gain access to a network.*

The phrase above indicates a flaw in the T.30 protocol itself and not in particular implementations. This is from 2018. I don't remember reading anything about this in the fs mailing list.
Was freeswitch/spandsp audited to ensure application rxfax is safe?
