Fake SIP Daemon - A minimal SIP honeypot

Version 1.1.0

fsipd is a lightweight SIP honeypot that listens on TCP/UDP port 5060 for both IPv4 and IPv6 (when available). It logs all incoming SIP requests with source/destination IP addresses and port numbers in CSV format.

• Dual protocol support (TCP and UDP)
• IPv4 and IPv6 support
• Multi-threaded architecture
• CSV logging for easy analysis
• Syslog integration option
• Signal-safe log rotation (SIGHUP)
• Sanitizes multiline messages to preserve CSV integrity
• Configurable log and PID file paths

Logs are written in CSV format with the following fields:

epoch timestamp, protocol, src ip, src port, "message"

Example:

1445775973,UDP4,127.0.0.1,50751,"INVITE sip:user@example.com SIP/2.0"
1445775974,TCP6,::1,54321,"REGISTER sip:example.com SIP/2.0"

Note: Multiline SIP messages are sanitized by replacing newlines and control characters with spaces to maintain CSV format integrity.
