Yes, but thats an alias and easily removed or changed... [?]

I don't know though, a lot of Universities are publishing their sip
directories. I think the whole "with me having local access to your voice
vlan, let me show you how i can record your calls" type of security scare
thing going on, sooner or later all of this, locally too, with be secured
via TLS. I would like to see an adoptable IIETF on the whole certificate
thing, but realize that is years away. Perhaps it will be easier with sip
v3.0 (which is sweet and all xml as I recall), but that is also years and
years away. Who knows how it will all change with IPv6...

I'm not exposing a vulnerability. SIP is vulnerable due to a very specific
"basic" config, scanning for open port 5060. Behind a firewall or not... I'm
simply suggesting that people consider using a different access code for the
default service than *81, which is WHY it is configurable.
