INFECTED (PORTS: 600)

2006-05-18 Thread Morgan Walker








Hey guys,



Just new to this mailing list, hope you guys can help me
out. I was testing out the chkrootkit package on one of my debian
boxes. After running chkrootkit q I received the
following output:



INFECTED (PORTS: 600)



I looked further into and narrowed down to this. netstat
-naptu | grep 600 gave me the following ouput:



udp
0 0
0.0.0.0:600
0.0.0.0:*
2120/rpc.statd



I have searched around on other mailing lists and forums,
but could never really get a definitive answer. Is this a common message
for chkrootkit, should I be worried? Any help would be great, thanks in
advance.

I got that message (with a different port) just because I was running imaps 
rather than normal imap.  chkrootkit seems to employ a bit of poetic license 
with its definition of infected ;)

password minimum days problem

2006-05-18 Thread prosolutions

Here's the issue.  If PASS_MIN_DAYS is set to some value in
/etc/login.defs, this defines the minimum number of days a user must
keep the same password.  This is intended to prevent password cycling.
Password cycling is when a password history is used and the new
password is required to be different than the N previous ones.  If
there's no PASS_MIN_DAYS set then the user can immediately cycle through
N passwords to get their old one back.

But the problem I'm having is this: when I set PASS_MIN_DAYS to some
value, it seems that the user account must be deleted and recreated for
the new setting to take affect.  This is all good and fine, but when I
initially create the new user, I give them some default password that
they should have to change right away.  However PASS_MIN_DAYS is
preventing this from happening.

So how to have PASS_MIN_DAYS set but to allow/require the new user to
change his password on the first login?

Use passwd -e to force the user to change his password.

running ‘chkrootkit –q’ I received the following output:


Use lsof and ps to find out who's running that proc and where from.  If 
root isn't running it then someone has a hacked binary that's trying to 
hide, if root is, and lsof indicates it's not /sbin/rpc.statd then you're 
owned.  It's kind of unusual for statd to show up on such a low port but 
not totally unheard of.

Do you get any unusual report with rkhunter?

chkrootkit has given me many false positives...I can remember false +'s
when portsentry or tiger were running.
