RFC 4028, "Session Timers in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)", April 2005

Source of RFC: sip (rai)

Errata ID: 1687
Status: Held for Document Update
Type: Technical
Publication Format(s) : TEXT

Reported By: Radha krishna Saragadam

Section 9 says:

The UAS MUST NOT increase the value of the Session-Expires header field.

It should say:

same as session 8.1
   If the request doesn't indicate support for the session timer but
   contains a session interval that is too small, the UAS cannot
   usefully reject the request, as this would result in a call failure.
   Rather, the UAS SHOULD insert a Min-SE header field containing its
   minimum interval.  If a Min-SE header field is already present, the
   UAS SHOULD increase (but MUST NOT decrease) the value to its
   minimum interval.  The UAS MUST then increase the Session-Expires
   header field value to be equal to the value in the Min-SE header
   field

Thanks Brett,

So I think same should be added for UAS

<Snip from RFC section 8.1>

If the request doesn't indicate support for the session timer but

contains a session interval that is too small, the proxy cannot
usefully
reject the request, as this would result in a call failure.
Rather, the
proxy SHOULD insert a Min-SE header field containing its
minimum
interval. If a Min-SE header field is already present, the
proxy SHOULD
increase (but MUST NOT decrease) the value to its
minimum interval. The
proxy MUST then increase the Session-Expires
header field value to be equal to the value in the
Min-SE header
field, as described above.
</Snip from RFC>

It looks like Section 9 may have forgotten to indicate the behavior when UAC timer support not indicated. Section 8.1 allows a proxy to increase the Session-Expires; I see no reason why the same cannot be done by the UAS.
