If you spell this right, all calls from unknown SIP devices will be sent to the
context you set here. If you do not set a context in the general section of
sip.conf, "default" will be used.

This is the way you configure how to receive calls from unknown users, not
really a security hole. Everything you define in the [general] context= context
will be rechable by anyone.
