I have noticed something Cutwail-like (fast-talking starting with bogus 
HELO name (e.g. ymlf-pc) ) clustering in single-ISP ranges, as if it 
spread via probing nearby IPs with whatever its infection vector is. No

If someone wants to play around with these reports, and if this thread 
is interesting, probably should take it to the SDLU mailing list, or 
something similar.. was just interesting that it is contained to one 
network, and that the increase started about the same time as the emotet 
started back up again.. Last 24 hours new reports.. (Simple Cutwail) at 
bottom.


The more sophisticated version still out there, but not increasing 
much.. be nice to see take downs of these.

I can confirm that this is cutwail.  I'm showing 100% agreement in spot 
checking of your list of IPs.


This particular cutwail variant, unlike the others, has been percolating 
at low volumes for a long time.  The other more sophisticated versions 
have all pretty much gone away.

wondering if someone managed to force the infection to do IP

The other possibility is that someone stole the SMTP emission part and 
reused it in something less bot-like.

[mailop] CutWail infections growing again, all China based..

2020-07-17 Thread Michael Peddemors via mailop
While most of these are probably already stopped, via various RBL's and 
rulesets common to most spam protection, it is worth posting..


Seeing the infection spike again, but strangely all from Chinese IP Ranges.

Note, for the one provider, it is especially a bad overnight jump.

*.adsl-pool.jlccptt.net.cn

(The other ones do not have PTR records, so probably never get anywhere, 
you think the hackers would check if the IP address has a PTR record 
before even trying to spam/spread)


Of course, there is no A record for that domain, and the whois does not 
have valid contact information.
