  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Timer cancellation on a non-valid       *
  *                      session causes a memory leak in         *
  *                      Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)       *
  *                      code.                                   *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When the timer is canceled and the application session is not
  valid, we need to remove the timer from the session repository
  map directly. Otherwise it is still unremoved and that causes a
  memory leak.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been fixed to remove the timer object
  from the session repository map when the application session
  on which the timer was invoked is not valid.
  

Temporary fix
