netfilter: nf_ct_sip: correct allowed characters in Call-ID SIP header
Current parsing methods for SIP header Call-ID do not check correctly all
characters allowed by RFC 3261. In particular "," character is allowed
instead of "'" character. As a result Call-ID headers like the following
are discarded by IPVS SIP persistence engine.
Call-ID: -.!%*_+`'~()<>:\"/[]?{}
Above example is composed using all non-alphanumeric characters listed
in RFC 3261 for Call-ID header syntax.
Proposed fix is in nf_conntrack_sip module; function iswordc() checks this
range: (c >= '(' && c <= '/') which includes these characters: ()*+,-./
They are all allowed except ",". Instead "'" is not included in the list.
Below is an extract of relevant SIP ABNF syntax.
Call-ID = ( "Call-ID" / "i" ) HCOLON callid
callid = word [ "@" word ]
