I've seen this attack at customer sites that were blocked at the

TraceBuster between the firewall and the router -- they jumped out
pretty easily. Tracebuster is my new best friend. Can't go wrong for
$99.
In my particular case, sip is only allowed in from specific IP
addresses, and blocked on all others. It's maddening though because
they screw up the broadband bandwidth that is available.
one of the reasons (from a security perspective) I like how FS decided
to split up their public ports.
we use 5060 for sip (automated scanners are NOT doing NAPTR or SRV
lookups!) they just hit port 5060. FS uses 5080.
we use 5080 for trunking (and can firewall and rate limit it easily
enough), FS uses 5060.
no, they won't stop real hackers, or SPIM, but will stop some of these
automated scanners.
(there is a patch in SVN to allow trunking AND sip calls on port 5060.
just like Askerisk does. I don't think I would apply that patch until I
had one that allowed me to move the sip call public port)
just from a security perspective, moving trunking to 5060 and limiting
it to just your ITSP and them moving public (sip calls, etc) to 5080
will stop ALL of these (for now) till they start scanning 5080, 5070,
5090, 5061, etc)
