Hi Bogdan,

Yes, we have the following enabled in our config:

tcp_accept_aliases=1

I assume this is the culprit then and we are inadvertently sending calls down the wrong TCP socket here to the wrong user due to this being enabled?  This is quite a nasty setting to have enabled when we are dealing with CGNAT'd customers who are sharing public IP addresses but are completely unrelated users!

I will disable this setting and see if that clears up the issue for us.  We have in fact had another case just today of the same issue happening (User A is receiving User B's incoming calls!)

Thanks for highlighting this and let me know if there is anything else I should look at in our config.

Thanks,

Ray

Hi Ray,

Do you use any TCP aliasing options in your cfg ?

Hi all,

I'm facing a weird issue which I think is related to broken TCP socket reuse logic where the wrong client is receiving incoming calls due to the wrong socket being used for the incoming INVITE.

The scenario is when I have 2 clients registering using TLS behind NAT at the same Public IPv4 address and both clients are using the same private port number.  So client 1 registers and the Via and contact header looks like:

Via: SIP/2.0/TLS 192.168.42.162:5062;branch=z9hG4bK1409895926;rport;alias Contact: <sip:201@192.168.42.162:5062;transport=tls>;reg-id=2;+sip.instance="<urn:uuid:00000000-0000-1000-8000-C074AD928AC4>"

Client 2 registers from behind the same Public IPv4 address and the Via and contact header looks like:

Via: SIP/2.0/TLS 192.168.42.186:5062;branch=z9hG4bK-aff1f3b3 Contact: <sip:202@192.168.42.186:5062;transport=tls>;expires=300

The location table shows Client 1 received field of 103.212.1.2:5062 and Client 103.212.1.2:23456

When a call comes in for Client 1 the location lookup seems to return the correct 'received' address and port (e.g. 103.212.1.2:5062) and all the logs indicate that this is where the SIP INVITE *should* be going to (in the $du field). However when you check the SIP traffic it selects Client 2's socket and the traffic goes to port 23456 instead of 5062.

I think this is related somehow to the TCP port reuse logic inside Opensips.  My suspicion is that Opensips is looking at the Contact or Via port number (which is the same for both client 1 and 2) and then somehow mapping this to the wrong TCP received socket.

Does anybody have any suggestions here?  Should I be fixing the NAT in the Contact header (using fix_nated_contact).  I read somewhere that you shouldn't rewrite the Contact header to avoid problems with sending a different Contact URI to the client on calls.  Or is this issue more related to the Via header and the TCP port reuse logic looking at this port instead of the actual received port when choosing the outgoing socket?

FYI: I am using both force_rport() and fix_nated_register() for incoming registrations from these clients and matching_mode of 0 in usrloc.  However, I am not using fix_nated_contact() for registrations.

Thanks,

Ray
