RE: STRANGE undeletable directory

2001-08-17 Thread Kevin Lundy

Did you try the POSIX utility rm.exe from the resource kit?

If you don't solve it soon, I've got a coworker who has solved it in the
past with an old utility.  I'll ask him when he gets in later.

This is what I was talking about earlier when it was suggested the server
was hacked because of the funny directory names.  I was speculating there
might be a way to create those directories with the normal permissions given
to the anonymous account in a write enabled directory.  The original post
about the server with the aux directory could very well have been hacked,
I just wasn't sure if the presence of those directories in a public FTP
folder was enough evidence to jump to that conclusion without looking at the
logs.

I did some experimenting and found I can't create the
com1.scanned.by.zog+++/+++/ directory under IIS5.  Perhaps it can be done
in IIS4?  I'm running Serv-U FTP on all of the IIS4 machines so I can't test
it there.  The +++COM2 and null.upload are legal though and can be
deleted by normal means.

On a related note, I've been getting some of the same people connecting to
my server, some warez guys from France.  I was watching their activity
closely for awhile because they don't have download permissions from the
uploads directory yet they continued to upload files which didn't make a lot
of sense to me.  I saw attempts at downloading, but nothing to indicate they
were successful or coming in by other means, so I've just started banning
their ip ranges because I'm tired of cleaning up all of the garbage on the
ftp site.

No, you misunderstood; I'm not trying to remove a directory.  I was trying
to figure out *how* they are created.  If you look at the log xylog posted:

it appears an anonymous FTP user created this directory.  I was

STRANGE undeletable directory

2001-08-16 Thread Martijn Eindhoven

Oke guys i have the following question.

A customer has his own w2ks box. Now he asked me to look at his machine
because he had a problem
I logged in and looked at the problem. The first thing i saw that here
was an ftp abuser. So i kicked him out.
But when i was going to delete the directories he made I stumbled upon
the strangest problem i've ever seen since a long 
time.

He made a map in the login directory that looked like this:

pub---
 |
 Com1--

|

Pub

|

Aux

Aux (yes two times an identical directory)

It says The parameter is incorrect when i try to delete it.
Looked at the settings and everything. Still undeletable.

Any ideas guys.

Oke guys i have the following question.


A customer has his own w2ks box. Now he asked me to look at his
machine because he had a problem
I logged in and looked at the problem. The first thing i saw that
here was an ftp abuser. So i kicked him out.
But when i was going to delete the directories he made I stumbled
upon the strangest problem i've ever seen since a long 
time.


He made a map in the login directory that looked like this:


pub---
 |
 Com1--

|

Pub

|

Aux

Aux (yes two times an identical directory)


It says The parameter is incorrect when i try to delete
it. Looked at the settings and everything. Still undeletable.


Any ideas guys.

Actually, doesn't require any
knowledge at all. This is a simple script kiddie attack. He was probably using
the exploited FTP site as storage for warez, or as an fxp site.

While this attack itself is not exemplary of
root attack, the fact that the server wasn't configured correctly to
begin with, leads one to assume that other services were vulnerable to attack.

A customer has his own w2ks box. Now he asked me to
look at his machine because he had a problem 

I logged in and looked at the problem. The first thing
i saw that here was an ftp abuser. So i kicked him out. 

But when i was going to delete the directories he made
I stumbled upon the strangest problem i've ever seen since a long

He made a map in the login directory that looked like
this:

Aux (yes two times an identical directory)

It says The parameter is incorrect when i

What options need to be ticked to record the FTP 
commands in IIS? The settings show the same categories as the WWW logs 
which don't intuitively apply to FTP. 

The deaults options just show the name of the file 
created.

  Look in your FTP logs you will see exactly 
  the command used to create those dirs.

Because anonymous users have permission to 
create directories and this fellow created directories. 


I wasn't trying to imply the 
machinedefinitely wasn't hacked, but I've seen this question arise 
before and always in an FTP directory. I was wondering if there is 
some way to create these directories with reserved words via normal FTP 
or HTTP commands. If there is, then the anonymous user would have 
permission to create those directories again.

  Better question:
  What would make you assume he didn't?

Assuming the machine was configured for 
anonymous logins, what would make you believe he did anything else 
he wasn't allowed to do?

  Of course you still need to rebuild the box now. 
  
  Who knows what else this guy did to it.

  This 
  is what I was talking about earlier when it was suggested the server was 
  hacked because of the funny directory names. I was speculating there 
  might be a way to create those directories with the normal permissions given 
  to the anonymous account in a write enabled directory. The original post 
  about the server with the "aux" directory could very well have been hacked, I 
  just wasn't sure if the presence of those directories in a public FTP folder 
  was enough evidence to jump to that conclusion without looking at the 
  logs.
  
  I 
  did some experimenting and found I can't create the 
  "com1.scanned.by.zog+++/+++/" directory under IIS5. Perhaps it can be 
  done in IIS4? I'm running Serv-U FTP on all of the IIS4 machines so I 
  can't test it there. The "+++COM2" and "null.upload" are legal though 
  and can be deleted by normal means.
  
  On a 
  related note, I've been getting some of the same people connecting to my 
  server, some warez guys from France. I was watching their activity 
  closely for awhile because they don't have download permissions from the 
  uploads directory yet they continued to upload files which didn't make a lot 
  of sense to me. I saw attempts at downloading, but nothing to indicate 
  they were successful or coming in by other means, so I've just started banning 
  their ip ranges because I'm tired of cleaning up all of the garbage on the ftp 
  site.

Oke guys i have the following question.

A customer has his own w2ks box. Now he asked me to look at his machine
because he had a problem
I logged in and looked at the problem. The first thing i saw that here
was an ftp abuser. So i kicked him out.
But when i was going to delete the directories he made I stumbled upon
the strangest problem i've ever seen since a long
time.

He made a map in the login directory that looked like this:

pub---
|
Com1--
|
Pub
|
Aux
Aux (yes two times an identical directory)

It says The parameter is incorrect when i try to delete it. Looked at
the settings and everything. Still undeletable.

Any ideas guys.
