I run "chkrootkit" on my system, nightly, to try to ensure that nobody's found a way behind my firewall and hacked in.
This morning, while perusing my nightly logs and messages, chkrootkit came up with a positive hit in its BINDSHELL tests, telling me that something was listening on port 1008. This, of course, did not happen, yesterday. The only real change is that I ran up2date, and downloaded the latest XFree86 packages, bringing them to .eve. 4.1.0-15. Is there something about this version of XFree86 that now causes something to listen on this port (1008)? (For that matter, netstat shows me that it's listening on port 1005...even nmap doesn't show that for me...any idea what that is?) netstat -l shows that the port is being listened to, but doesn't really give me an indication of what it is (or, I'm just not reading it right): Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32768 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32769 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:515 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:37 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:901 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:139 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:813 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:110 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:143 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:79 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:6000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:2000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:10000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:624 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1008 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:977 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:113 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1267 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:39093 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:21 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:23 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:504 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:953 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22874 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:26 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:443 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32768 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:2049 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32769 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32770 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32771 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:517 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:518 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 192.168.0.1:137 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:137 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 192.168.0.1:138 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:138 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:10000 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:37 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:811 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 192.168.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:67 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:975 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1005 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:749 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:622 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111 0.0.0.0:* raw 0 0 0.0.0.0:1 0.0.0.0:* 7 Active UNIX domain sockets (only servers) Proto RefCnt Flags Type State I-Node Path unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1396 public/showq unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 846578 /tmp/mcop-mburger/burgers_bubbanfriends_org-143c-3c5351c2 unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1379 private/cleanup unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1384 private/rewrite unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1387 private/bounce unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1390 private/defer unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1393 private/smtp unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1735 citadel.socket unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1399 private/error unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 846546 /tmp/ksocket-mburger/klauncherghOg8b.slave-socket unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1402 private/local unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 848311 /tmp/ksocket-mburger/kdesud_:0 unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1737 smtp.socket unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1405 private/cyrus unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1408 private/uucp unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1411 private/ifmail unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1414 private/bsmtp unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1417 private/citadel unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 846530 /tmp/.ICE-unix/5173 unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 846624 /tmp/.ICE-unix/5088 unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 845735 /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1469 /dev/gpmctl unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1631 /tmp/.font-unix/fs7100 unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1358 /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 846592 /home/mburger/.kxmlrpcd-socket-DFgvwc unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 846524 /tmp/ksocket-mburger/kdeinit-:0 _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
