I am interested in 'fingerprinting' various SIP scanner attacks and using
them to intelligently block attacks, rather than just blindly black listing
any SIP message to a honey pot.
Additionally I think it would be wise to detect these missing ACKs and/or
incomplete transactions from a legitimately mis-configured or
malfunctioning end point, to help protect the core network from needless
re-transmissions.
Having checked the Asterisk logs, this is what I'm looking to block if a
certain threshold is exceeded-
[2016-04-05 13:10:52] WARNING[2010] chan_sip.c: Retransmission timeout
reached on transmission eff430b8c1b6d21c2058049f41a7ec57 for seqno 1
(Critical Response)
Thanks

I have observed many attacks from the 'sipcli' user agent that don't send

Please could anyone point me in the right
direction to detect these non
completed calls with a missing ACK in Kamailio? I am unsure on the
terminology I should be using to search the online documentation.
Why do you care? The attacker doesn't care about receiving SIP messages,
they are only interested in initiating a call to a target, if the target
gets dialled you will be abused, by either an other source with a fully
function SIP stack or just something that might be spoofed.
What I do is blacklist addresses that send any SIP messages to my
honeypots, might be dangerous since with UDP anything can be spoofed (so
better make sure you have a whitelist and there is no connection between
the honeypots and your client facing SIP platform)
