Also do you know how the password was gained? If it was brute-forced look at implementing a secure password policy and using fail2ban to detect and block brute forcing attacks

Kamil,

when you use the "limit" application and increase the user's counter, it keeps its value only within the context where it was originally called. If you, for example, used pieces of the original (Vanilla) FreeSWITCH configuration, there are bind_meta_app bindings which send the call into another context ("features"). Once it's done, the user's limit counter is lost, and you need to increment it again in the new context.

Also, why don't you implement daily and monthly minute limits and block the user as soon as these limits are reached?

Limit resets as soon as the call leaves the context - could that be the reason?

Dear all,

Today we had an attack. One of our clients lost password to his SIP account. So with this password attackers made calls on our client's behalf to very expensive destinations.

We have Opensips as a border controller and Freeswitch as a Softswitch. This phone was confugured for 1 concurrent line using module limit of FS. Howerver they somehow managed to make several concurrent calls per one account. On CDR's we found that there was Attended transfer. Does anybody knows what kind of attack was that and how I can protect us against this? Is it sip refer attack when attacker set REFERED BY HEADER?

When I check if limit works whith a sipphone, I see that it worked 100%.

Thanks in advance
