I think, 400 is more appropriate for any malformed SDP.

488 is more applicable for the case when the SDP is understood and is not 
supported.

Generally, the x00 responses should be avoided as much as possible,
because they provide almost no information that can be acted upon
automatically.

This has come up before, but I don't remember the previous answers.  It
looks to me like 488 Not Acceptable Here is a reasonable response.  All
the examples in RFC 3261 involve correct SDP that is somehow not usable
at the UAS.  But you can give 488 with warning code 399 Miscellaneous
Response, and include a text phrase describing the malformed SDP.
