[expert] Blaster hits and IPCOP..what should I look for???

2003-08-16 Thread Gavin

I've got a few M$ boxes running 2000 and XP behind my IPcop firewall, all my 
boxes are patched.. I've been checking my logs for anything pertaining to the 
blaster worm but "I THINK" there is nothing showing..I've got snort  active 
but I'm not "REALLY" sure what to look for!! if any of you experts are using 
ipcop and your logs show hits. could you show me a snip so I know what to 
look for.. 

Thank you

Kiran,

Thanks for your reply, but I wanted to see an actual snip from someone's IPCOP 
IDS to see EXACTLY what I should look for, I've got many hits on these ports 
but not sure if its the blaster worn or not.

I can't seem to get IPCOP to log binary dumps of IDS packet data. Snort
is started by a c-code program "/usr/local/bin/restartsnort" (security I
guess). But that would be a start.
snort has some info, but i don't think ipcop has updated the snort rules
for this. last official update was 7-31-03 (fixes3 update)

http://www.snort.org/snort-db/sid.html?sid=2192
http://www.snort.org/snort-db/sid.html?sid=2193

These look close and you may be able to make/add the rules to one of the
snort rule files.

I know this still doesn't answer the question, but its a start. You
really can't know if its a legit/mistaken request or not without the
dump. Chances are port 135 requests are, but the dump would help define
the attack.

Wouldn't the IPCop mailing list be a better place for this question?

In any case, you won't see it in your IDS logs unless you applied the
new Snort rule for LOVE SAN/MS BLAST.  Your firewall log will show tons
of dropped packets from sources on the Internet and going to destination
port 135/TCP.  Many people found that the worm was causing far too much
log space to be taken, so they added explicit rules to drop those
packets without logging them, in which case you will see nothing (it
doesn't sound like you added those rules, though).

To tell if your internal boxes are infected, you would have to write
iptables rules to log outgoing packets that either source port  or
destination port 135.  Apply that to your external interface to see if
packets from your network going outbound match those rules.  That will
indicate that you have infected boxes.
