Opened: Sep 05, 2018

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

The BIG-IP system incorrectly handles SDP media ports. UAC sends SDP message body publishing capable of handling voice, text, and video. UAS responds, publishing voice, text and video not desired by setting video port to '0'. The BIG-IP system does not honor the fact that UAS does not want video, and translates video port '0' to an ephemeral port, causing the UAC to believe it must open a video channel. When the UAC sends a video connection request, the BIG-IP system sends the request to the wrong port, i.e., to the media port for text, which causes the connection to fail.

Impact

Improper media channel creation.

Conditions

RTP media port defined in the SIP message is set to 0.

Workaround

You can use an iRule workaround to remove the media attributes with ports set to 0 at the ingress, and update the message body size accordingly.
