1.  Overview

   This document is informational and is NOT NORMATIVE on any aspect of
   SIP.

   This document contains test messages based on the current version
   (2.0) of the Session Initiation Protocol as, defined in [RFC3261].
   Some messages exercise SIP's use of the Session Description Protocol
   (SDP), as described in [RFC3264].

   These messages were developed and refined at the SIPIt
   interoperability test events.

   The test messages are organized into several sections.  Some stress
   only a SIP parser, and others stress both the parser and the
   application above it.  Some messages are valid, and some are not.
   Each example clearly calls out what makes any invalid messages
   incorrect.

   This document does not attempt to catalog every way to make an
   invalid message, nor does it attempt to be comprehensive in exploring
   unusual, but valid, messages.  Instead, it tries to focus on areas
   that have caused interoperability problems or that have particularly
   unfavorable characteristics if they are handled improperly.  This
   document is a seed for a test plan, not a test plan in itself.

   The messages are presented in the text using a set of markup
   conventions to avoid ambiguity and meet Internet-Draft layout
   requirements.  To resolve any remaining ambiguity, a bit-accurate
   version of each message is encapsulated in an appendix.

2.  Document Conventions

   This document contains many example SIP messages.  Although SIP is a
   text-based protocol, many of these examples cannot be unambiguously
   rendered without additional markup due to the constraints placed on
   the formatting of RFCs.  This document defines and uses the markup



Sparks, et al.               Informational                      [Page 3]


RFC 4475               SIP Torture Test Messages                May 2006


   defined in this section to remove that ambiguity.  This markup uses
   the start and end tag conventions of XML but does not define any XML
   document type.

   The appendix contains an encoded binary form of all the messages and
   the algorithm needed to decode them into files.

2.1.  Representing Long Lines

   Several of these examples contain unfolded lines longer than 72
   characters.  These are captured between <allOneLine/> tags.  The
   single unfolded line is reconstructed by directly concatenating all
   lines appearing between the tags (discarding any line feeds or
   carriage returns).  There will be no whitespace at the end of lines.
   Any whitespace appearing at a fold-point will appear at the beginning
   of a line.

   The following represent the same string of bits:

      Header-name: first value, reallylongsecondvalue, third value

      <allOneLine>
      Header-name: first value,
       reallylongsecondvalue
      , third value
      </allOneLine>

      <allOneLine>
      Header-name: first value,
       reallylong
      second
      value,
       third value
      </allOneLine>

   Note that this is NOT SIP header-line folding, where different
   strings of bits have equivalent meaning.

2.2.  Representing Non-printable Characters

   Several examples contain binary message bodies or header field values
   containing non-ascii range UTF-8 encoded characters.  These are
   rendered here as a pair of hexadecimal digits per octet between
   <hex/> tags.  This rendering applies even inside quoted-strings.







Sparks, et al.               Informational                      [Page 4]


RFC 4475               SIP Torture Test Messages                May 2006


   The following represent the same string of bits:

      Header-name: value one
      Header-name: value<hex>206F6E</hex>e

   The following is a Subject header field containing the euro symbol:

      Subject: <hex>E282AC</hex>

2.3.  Representing Long Repeating Strings

   Several examples contain very large data values created with
   repeating bit strings.  Those will be rendered here using <repeat
   count=some_integer>value</repeat>.  As with <hex>, this rendering
   applies even inside quoted strings.

   For example, the value "abcabcabc" can be rendered as <repeat
   count=3>abc</repeat>.  A display name of "1000000 bottles of beer"
   could be rendered as

      To: "1<repeat count=6><hex>30</hex></repeat> bottles of beer"
          <sip:beer.example.com>

   A Max-Forwards header field with a value of one google will be
   rendered here as

      Max-Forwards: 1<repeat count=100>0</repeat>

3.1.1.  Valid Messages

3.1.1.1.  A Short Tortuous INVITE

   This short, relatively human-readable message contains:

   o  line folding all over.

   o  escaped characters within quotes.

   o  an empty subject.

   o  LWS between colons, semicolons, header field values, and other
      fields.

   o  both comma separated and separately listed header field values.



Sparks, et al.               Informational                      [Page 5]


RFC 4475               SIP Torture Test Messages                May 2006


   o  a mix of short and long form for the same header field name.

   o  unknown Request-URI parameter.

   o  unknown header fields.

   o  an unknown header field with a value that would be syntactically
      invalid if it were defined in terms of generic-param.

   o  unusual header field ordering.

   o  unusual header field name character case.

   o  unknown parameters of a known header field.

   o  a uri parameter with no value.

   o  a header parameter with no value.

   o  integer fields (Max-Forwards and CSeq) with leading zeros.

   All elements should treat this as a well-formed request.

   The UnknownHeaderWithUnusualValue header field deserves special
   attention.  If this header field were defined in terms of comma-
   separated values with semicolon-separated parameters (as would many
   of the existing defined header fields), this would be invalid.
   However, since the receiving element does not know the definition of
   the syntax for this field, it must parse it as a header value.
   Proxies would forward this header field unchanged.  Endpoints would
   ignore the header field.

3.1.1.2.  Wide Range of Valid Characters

   This message exercises a wider range of characters in several key
   syntactic elements than implementations usually see.  In particular,
   note the following:

   o  The Method contains non-alpha characters from token.  Note that %
      is not an escape character for this field.  A method of IN%56ITE
      is an unknown method.  It is not the same as a method of INVITE.

   o  The Request-URI contains unusual, but legal, characters.

   o  A branch parameter contains all non-alphanum characters from
      token.

   o  The To header field value's quoted string contains quoted-pair
      expansions, including a quoted NULL character.

   o  The name part of name-addr in the From header field value contains
      multiple tokens (instead of a quoted string) with all non-alphanum
      characters from the token production rule.  That value also has an
      unknown header parameter whose name contains the non-alphanum
      token characters and whose value is a non-ascii range UTF-8
      encoded string.  The tag parameter on this value contains the
      non-alphanum token characters.

   o  The Call-ID header field value contains the non-alphanum
      characters from word.  Notice that in this production:

      *  % is not an escape character.  It is only an escape character
         in productions matching the rule "escaped".

      *  " does not start a quoted string.  None of ',` or " imply that
         there will be a matching symbol later in the string.

      *  The characters []{}()<> do not have any grouping semantics.
         They are not required to appear in balanced pairs.

   o  There is an unknown header field (matching extension-header) with
      non-alphanum token characters in its name and a UTF8-NONASCII
      value.

   If this unusual URI has been defined at a proxy, the proxy will
   forward this request normally.  Otherwise, a proxy will generate a
   404.  Endpoints will generate a 501 listing the methods they
   understand in an Allow header field.

3.1.1.3.  Valid Use of the % Escaping Mechanism

   This INVITE exercises the % HEX HEX escaping mechanism in several
   places.  The request is syntactically valid.  Interesting features
   include the following:

   o  The request-URI has sips:user@example.com embedded in its
      userpart.  What that might mean to example.net is beyond the scope
      of this document.

   o  The From and To URIs have escaped characters in their userparts.

   o  The Contact URI has escaped characters in the URI parameters.
      Note that the "name" uri-parameter has a value of "value%41",
      which is NOT equivalent to "valueA".  Per [RFC3986], unescaping
      URI components is never performed recursively.






Sparks, et al.               Informational                      [Page 9]

   A parser must accept this as a well-formed message.  The application
   using the message must treat the % HEX HEX expansions as equivalent
   to the character being encoded.  The application must not try to
   interpret % as an escape character in those places where % HEX HEX
   ("escaped" in the grammar) is not a valid part of the construction.
   In [RFC3261], "escaped" only occurs in the expansions of SIP-URI,
   SIPS-URI, and Reason-Phrase.

RFC 4475               SIP Torture Test Messages                May 2006


3.1.1.4.  Escaped Nulls in URIs

   This register request contains several URIs with nulls in the
   userpart.  The message is well formed - parsers must accept this
   message.  Implementations must take special care when unescaping the
   Address-of-Record (AOR) in this request so as to not prematurely
   shorten the username.  This request registers two distinct contact
   URIs.

      Message Details : escnull

      REGISTER sip:example.com SIP/2.0
      To: sip:null-%00-null@example.com

      L:0

3.1.1.5.  Use of % When It Is Not an Escape

   In most of the places % can appear in a SIP message, it is not an
   escape character.  This can surprise the unwary implementor.  The
   following well-formed request has these properties:

   o  The request method is unknown.  It is NOT equivalent to REGISTER.

   o  The display name portion of the To and From header fields is
      "%Z%45".  Note that this is not the same as %ZE.

   o  This message has two Contact header field values, not three.
      <sip:alias2@host2.example.com> is a C%6Fntact header field value.

   A parser should accept this message as well formed.  A proxy would
   forward or reject the message depending on what the Request-URI meant
   to it.  An endpoint would reject this message with a 501.

3.1.1.6.  Message with No LWS between Display Name and <

   This OPTIONS request is not valid per the grammar in RFC 3261 since
   there is no LWS between the token in the display name and < in the
   From header field value.  This has been identified as a specification
   bug that will be removed when RFC 3261 is revised.  Elements should
   accept this request as well formed.

3.1.1.7.  Long Values in Header Fields

   This well-formed request contains header fields with many values and
   values that are very long.  Features include the following:

   o  The To header field has a long display name, and long uri
      parameter names and values.

   o  The From header field has long header parameter names and values,
      in particular, a very long tag.

   o  The Call-ID is one long token.

3.1.1.8.  Extra Trailing Octets in a UDP Datagram

   This message contains a single SIP REGISTER request, which ostensibly
   arrived over UDP in a single datagram.  The packet contains extra
   octets after the body (which in this case has zero length).  The
   extra octets happen to look like a SIP INVITE request, but (per
   section 18.3 of [RFC3261]) they are just spurious noise that must be
   ignored.

   A SIP element receiving this datagram would handle the REGISTER
   request normally and ignore the extra bits that look like an INVITE
   request.  If the element is a proxy choosing to forward the REGISTER,
   the INVITE octets would not appear in the forwarded request.

RFC 4475               SIP Torture Test Messages                May 2006


3.1.2.  Invalid Messages

   This section contains several invalid messages reflecting errors seen
   at interoperability events and exploring important edge conditions
   that can be induced through malformed messages.  This section does
   not attempt to be a comprehensive list of all types of invalid
   messages.

3.1.2.1.  Extraneous Header Field Separators

   The Via header field of this request contains additional semicolons
   and commas without parameters or values.  The Contact header field
   contains additional semicolons without parameters.  This message is
   syntactically invalid.

   An element receiving this request should respond with a 400 Bad
   Request error.

3.1.2.2.  Content Length Larger Than Message

   This is a request message with a Content Length that is larger than
   the actual length of the body.

   When sent over UDP (as this message ostensibly was), the receiving
   element should respond with a 400 Bad Request error.  If this message
   arrived over a stream-based transport, such as TCP, there's not much

3.1.2.3.  Negative Content-Length

   This request has a negative value for Content-Length.

   An element receiving this message should respond with an error.  This
   request appeared over UDP, so the remainder of the datagram can
   simply be discarded.  If a request like this arrives over TCP, the
   framing error is not recoverable, and the connection should be
   closed.  The same behavior is appropriate for messages that arrive
   without a numeric value in the Content-Length header field, such as
   the following:

      Content-Length: five

   Implementors should take extra precautions if the technique they
   choose for converting this ascii field into an integral form can
   return a negative value.  In particular, the result must not be used
   as a counter or array index.

3.1.2.4.  Request Scalar Fields with Overlarge Values

   This request contains several scalar header field values outside
   their legal range.

      o  The CSeq sequence number is >2**32-1.

      o  The Max-Forwards value is >255.

      o  The Expires value is >2**32-1.

      o  The Contact expires parameter value is >2**32-1.

   An element receiving this request should respond with a 400 Bad
   Request due to the CSeq error.  If only the Max-Forwards field were
   in error, the element could choose to process the request as if the
   field were absent.  If only the expiry values were in error, the
   element could treat them as if they contained the default values for
   expiration (3600 in this case).

   Other scalar request fields that may contain aberrant values include,
   but are not limited to, the Contact q value, the Timestamp value, and
   the Via ttl parameter.

3.1.2.7.  <> Enclosing Request-URI

   This INVITE request is invalid because the Request-URI has been

   It is reasonable always to reject a request with this error with a
   400 Bad Request.  Elements attempting to be liberal with what they
   accept may choose to ignore the brackets.  If the element forwards
   the request, it must not include the brackets in the messages it

   This INVITE is malformed, as the SIP Request-URI contains escaped

3.1.2.12.  Invalid Time Zone in Date Header Field

   This INVITE is invalid, as it contains a non-GMT time zone in the SIP
   Date header field.

   It is acceptable to reject this request as malformed (though an
   element shouldn't do that unless the contents of the Date header
   field were actually important to its processing).  An element wishing
   to be liberal in what it accepts could ignore this value altogether
   if it wasn't going to use the Date header field anyway.  Otherwise,
   it could attempt to interpret this date and adjust it to GMT.

   RFC 3261 explicitly defines the only acceptable time zone designation
   as "GMT".  "UT", while synonymous with GMT per [RFC2822], is not
   valid.  "UTC" and "UCT" are also invalid.

3.1.2.13.  Failure to Enclose name-addr URI in <>

   This REGISTER request is malformed.  The SIP URI contained in the
   Contact Header field has an escaped header, so the field must be in
   name-addr form (which implies that the URI must be enclosed in <>).

   It is reasonable for an element receiving this request to respond
   with a 400 Bad Request.  An element choosing to be liberal in what it
   accepts could infer the angle brackets since there is no ambiguity in
   this example.  In general, that won't be possible.

3.1.2.15.  Non-token Characters in Display Name

   This OPTIONS request is malformed, since the display names in the To
   and From header fields contain non-token characters but are unquoted.

   It is reasonable always to reject this kind of error with a 400 Bad
   Request response.

   An element may attempt to be liberal in what it receives and infer
   the missing quotes.  If this element were a proxy, it must not
   propagate the error into the request it forwards.  As a consequence,
   if the fields are covered by a signature, there's not much point in
   trying to be liberal - the message should simply be rejected.

3.2.1.  Missing Transaction Identifier

   This request indicates support for RFC 3261-style transaction
   identifiers by providing the z9hG4bK prefix to the branch parameter,
   but it provides no identifier.  A parser must not break when
   receiving this message.  An element receiving this request could
   reject the request with a 400 Response (preferably statelessly, as
   other requests from the source are likely also to have a malformed
   branch parameter), or it could fall back to the RFC 2543-style
   transaction identifier.

3.3.2.  Request-URI with Unknown Scheme

   This OPTIONS contains an unknown URI scheme in the Request-URI.  A
   parser must accept this as a well-formed SIP request.

   An element receiving this request will reject it with a 416
   Unsupported URI Scheme response.

   Some early implementations attempt to look at the contents of the To
   header field to determine how to route this kind of request.  That is
   an error.  Despite the fact that the To header field and the Request
   URI frequently look alike in simplistic first-hop messages, the To
   header field contains no routing information.

3.3.3.  Request-URI with Known but Atypical Scheme

   This OPTIONS contains an Request-URI with an IANA-registered scheme
   that does not commonly appear in Request-URIs of SIP requests.  A
   parser must accept this as a well-formed SIP request.

   If an element will never accept this scheme as meaningful in a
   Request-URI, it is appropriate to treat it as unknown and return a
   416 Unsupported URI Scheme response.  If the element might accept
   some URIs with this scheme, then a 404 Not Found is appropriate for
   those URIs it doesn't accept.

   Proxies should treat this message as they would any other request for
   this URI.  A registrar would reject this request with a 400 Bad

   SIP or SIPS URI as an AOR.

3.3.7.  Unknown Authorization Scheme

   This REGISTER request contains an Authorization header field with an
   unknown scheme.  The request is well formed.  A parser must not fail
   when receiving it.

   A proxy will treat this request as it would any other REGISTER.  If
   it forwards the request, it will include this Authorization header
   field unmodified in the forwarded messages.

   A registrar that does not care about challenge-response
   authentication will simply ignore the Authorization header field,
   processing this registration as if the field were not present.  A
   registrar that does care about challenge-response authentication will
   reject this request with a 401, issuing a new challenge with a scheme
   it understands.

   Endpoints choosing not to act as registrars will simply reject the
   request.  A 405 Method Not Allowed is appropriate.

3.3.9.  Multiple Content-Length Values

   Multiple conflicting Content-Length header field values appear in
   this request.

   From a framing perspective, this situation is equivalent to an
   invalid Content-Length value (or no value at all).

   An element receiving this message should respond with an error.  This
   request appeared over UDP, so the remainder of the datagram can
   simply be discarded.  If a request like this arrives over TCP, the
   framing error is not recoverable, and the connection should be
   closed.

   This message is a response with a 2nd Via header field value's sent-

   must not fail when receiving it.

   Per [RFC3261], an endpoint receiving this message should simply
   discard it.

   If a proxy followed normal response processing rules blindly, it
   would forward this response to the broadcast address.  To protect
   against this as an avenue of attack, proxies should drop such
   responses.

3.3.15.  Unacceptable Accept Offering

   This request indicates that the response must contain a body in an
   unknown type.  In particular, since the Accept header field does not
   contain application/sdp, the response may not contain an SDP body.
   The recipient of this request could respond with a 406 Not
   Acceptable, with a Warning/399 indicating that a response cannot be
   formulated in the formats offered in the Accept header field.  It is
   also appropriate to respond with a 400 Bad Request, since all SIP
   User-Agents (UAs) supporting INVITE are required to support
   application/sdp.

3.4.  Backward Compatibility

3.4.1.  INVITE with RFC 2543 Syntax

   This is a legal message per RFC 2543 (and several bis versions) that
   should be accepted by RFC 3261 elements that want to maintain
   backwards compatibility.

   o  There is no branch parameter at all on the Via header field value.

   o  There is no From tag.

4.  Security Considerations

   This document presents NON-NORMATIVE examples of SIP session
   establishment.  The security considerations in [RFC3261] apply.

   Parsers must carefully consider edge conditions and malicious input
   as part of their design.  Attacks on many Internet systems use
   crafted input to cause implementations to behave in undesirable ways.
   Many of the messages in this document are designed to stress a parser
   implementation at points traditionally used for such attacks.
   However, this document does not attempt to be comprehensive.  It
   should be considered a seed to stimulate thinking and planning, not
   simply a set of tests to be passed.

Appendix A.  Bit-Exact Archive of Each Test Message

   The following text block is an encoded, gzip-compressed TAR archive
   of files that represent each of the example messages discussed in
   Section 3.

   To recover the compressed archive file intact, the text of this
   document may be passed as input to the following Perl script (the
   output should be redirected to a file or piped to "tar -xzvf -").

   #!/usr/bin/perl
   use strict;
   my $bdata = "";
   use MIME::Base64;
   while(<>) {
    if (/-- BEGIN MESSAGE ARCHIVE --/ .. /-- END MESSAGE ARCHIVE --/) {
        if ( m/^\s*[^\s]+\s*$/) {
            $bdata = $bdata . $_;
        }
     }
   }
   print decode_base64($bdata);


   Figure 58

   Alternatively, the base-64 encoded block can be edited by hand to
   remove document structure lines and fed as input to any base-64
   decoding utility.
