Today I was hacked but caught it very quickly. This is the weird part, they hacked an IP Auth based account by simply knowing the account name.

How is this possible? I am running Asterisk 11.5.0. Now it's my fault I used a dictionary based account name but how did they bypass the set ip I had under the account for this host.

Did the IP show under sip show peer xxx? If it's realtime it's possible to set it and need to prune it / sip reload.
