Hi Daniel,
good tip about the crypto module.
It will indeed hide the IP address in the call-id, just tried it:
Call-ID: d810d369-aa60-4d79-aee5-9c03d2e66781
I think if we would feed the sruid unique ID (in libs/srutils) into the SHA256 hash (also
available there) this it should be secure enough without the crypto dependencies.
The sruid is based on a LSFR implementation which is quite fast, and the SHA256 should
provide the necessary unpredictability.
But as the crypto module approach works, it has probably not a really high priority. I can
also look a bit into it when I got time.
Cheers,
Henning

Hello,
using the ip in call-id is not a good practice imo, I had it in mind to replace it
properly everywhere for quite some time -- actually at this moment there is an option that
can be activated in the crypto module making the call-id to be generated with libssl
unique id generation functions, but I don't recall if the local ip is still appended.
This would require libssl, so my goal was to add an alternative to generate a
"good-enough" unique id, without external dependencies, to be used as local
call-id.
Cheers,
Daniel

Hello Henning,
No concerns at all!! As you say, the Call-ID can really say whatever... The only concern
could/would be in the security topic that you are disclosing potential sensible
information about your infrastructure blablabla... but that can be solved just by changing
the listen= order so even that wouldn't be a problem.. In reality I was just curious
so I thought I'd ask :)
Thanks!!
Joel.

Hello Joel,
funny - I just had this discussion about the same topic some days ago.
In the end this is "only" the call-id, the IP should not be used to to routing
descisions etc.. Do you have some more concerns about this?
I think as well it just uses the first IP. I think at the moment the call-id is generated
internally from tm, but this could be of course changed for the module with some
coding/extension.

Hello,
Simple doubt regarding dispatcher module when you have the ds_default_socket() modparam
set:
Say you have 2 kamailio boxes, active + passive, one shared IP via keepalived.... On the
actrive node, you have dispatcher.send_ping to 1, and the passive has it set to 0.
So far OK, only the active box is sending out probing OPTIONS requests, and it's using
as outbound socket the virtual IP out of all the available ones (as defined with
ds_default_socket() modparam)
I have seen in a capture that the outbound OPTIONS look like:
OPTIONS sip:190.14.203.219:5060<http://190.14.203.219:5060> SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP A.B.C.180;branch=z9hG4bK7abb.6fbaccc1000000000000000000000000.0
To: <sip:190.14.203.219:5060<http://190.14.203.219:5060>>
From:
<sip:dspinger@my.domain><mailto:sip:dspinger@my.domain>;tag=e2bdd495733c59fd91487a137fccad4e-8a73
CSeq: 10 OPTIONS
Call-ID: 2019f8491329c382-31419(a)A.B.C.181
Max-Forwards: 70
Content-Length: 0
A.B.C.180 -> VRRP
A.B.C.181 -> Physical IP of the box
My doubt is, shouldn't ds_default_socket also update the IP used to generate the
Call-ID used in the OPTIONS request? Currently, I believe it's using the first defined
listen= IP from config script as I switched the order the listen= are defined and I get
the desired result:
OPTIONS sip:186.188.220.174:5060<http://186.188.220.174:5060> SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP A.B.C.180;branch=z9hG4bKc97e.a8d9e1c2000000000000000000000000.0

Call-ID: 7d9a92c218fc1ba0-32111(a)A.B.C.180

Is this expected?
