Security :: Bypassing ISP Using SSH / Manipulate SSH Packets Between Two Computers?
Sep 1, 2010
I setup a SSH server on my computer on a very high port, so that my brother could surf the web through my computer from Iran, since the majority of websites are filtered there.
Today, he told me he cannot connect to my computer. That's why, I got suspicious that they are doing packet based filtering instead of port. Then I decided to change the port to 433 for https, but one of my friend told me that they just banned https in Iran as well.
I was wondering if there's any way I can manipulate SSH packets between two computers so that my brother's ISP won't figure out he's exchanging SSH packets?

I was under the impression the Linux (in my case the Fedora OS) is very secure. However I've learnt with deep concern that that one can have access to the system during system startup i.e one can give various startup directives and bypass the normal login UI to have direct root access.
Is there a way to disble this so that the directives during startup are fixed and cannot be altered. I would like to make the system secure to the maximum extent possible.

I have a user that has already used up a demo 24hr trial on my website. At present, I only check the customer id and the IP address to search for duplicates. On the whole this works but it's not foolproof. We now have 1 user from China that is changing their IP address everyday to get access to the free trial. Any options on what to do? I thought of downloading a cookie to their computer that the website could pick up - again not foolproff but most people don't disable cookies. Any other options?
I could ban China temporarily until the user gives up but if they find another proxy to chain then their IP address will be different again.

My machine is trying to communicate with another computer. I�ve blocked the traffic with this machine with iptables (input and output traffic), but I want to find the origin of this traffic. There�re 90% of probabilities it�s a trojan, and I want to find it.I have logged the packets with iptables (and then dropped), but with this I don�t know the proccess source.I�ve tried with netstat -o, but I don�t get nothing.How can I see the Process source (i.e. the PID) of this traffic?The traffic are TCP packets, with SYN flagged active (my machine is trying to establish a connection with that IP).

I am trying to figure out what command to use to show the number of DROPPED and INVALID packets that the firewall is handling.I'm going to put these commands into a log analyzer script which will run every 15 minutes with cron. The firewall is running and operating the way I want it to. I'm running CentOS 5.4.

i have configured racoon (ipsec tunnel) between 2 hosts and i am afraid of unencrypted ICMP which appears in TCPDUMP logs. There ale also encrypted ESP packets. Is this result of wrong racoon configuration?

I keep finding packets that appear to be whois on port 44. they appear to originate from me to whois.arin.net (2 packets each time) and 199.212.0.43 (also 2 packets each time) when I put 199.212.0.43 in the URL box it says "Failure To Connect To Web Server". when I whois it it says:
Quote:
Available at [url] And yes, I did get the same packets when I used whois. Why is my computer randomly whoising stuff?

In my network I have 25 workstations and some serves. Everything working in local LAN with firewall. The problem is that on one machine (I dont know which one) is installed software which sending data to the internet. Actually I dont know what it is. Last time as I remember was trojan which can create new network interfaces in windows and send some data to the internet. The half speed of my network connection is used by this infected machine. How can I detect which machine it is? How can I listen/capture some traffic and analyze from which machine I have more connections.
Please take a look on this time. Instead of 141-150ms should be 4-5ms.

How can I detect which machine is infected using only linux and keyboard ?

I have a small network with 4 users, a Win2003 server for LAN/security functions, and a Dell Blade server running Ubuntu 8.04.1 which runs as our web server on port 80. I manage the Ubuntu server with Webmin v1.42Yesterday, my users weren't able to access the internet nor were they able to receive mail, etc. and no one could access any of the website hosted on the webserver. However, the internal users could access each other's PCs and internal printers and devices - just nothing outside.
I began to troubleshoot: I could see a lot of activity on the Router/Firewall on the port connected to the Ubuntu server. When I unplugged the server, everyone could immedately connect to the internet. So, the problem was originating with that server.When I logged in to the Ubuntu server using Webmin, I checked System>Running Processes and right at the top of the list was the process:ID Owner CPU Command23184 www-data 98.1% ./s 174.120.164.186 7777When I drilled down on this process it said that the parent process was:/bin/sh -c ./s 174.120.164.186 7777I pressed the Trace Process button and it appears to be sending the following repeatedly:Time System Call Parameters Returnxxxx send 125,0123456789ABCDE,15,0 15So, I manually Killed the process and added a rule to my firewall/router to block an IP range that includes 174:120:164:186
A few hours later the same process stars again in Ubuntu,, effectively plugging up my pipeline to the internet and preventing access to the websites being hosted.It suspect that there is some kind of virus on my Ubuntu machine but have no idea how to locate and destroy it. I am relatively new to the Ubuntu world and would appreciate anyone's help immensely! I just don't know what to do!

On April 10, 2010, I upgraded some packages on my Ubuntu 9.04 server. This included an upgrade to "ufw 0.27-0ubuntu2". I rebooted the server, and all appeared to be fine.
Now I've noticed that UFW is not logging blocked packets since that reboot. It used to do this. It is still logging the allowed packets that I've configured it to log.
Here's what a "ufw status verbose" says code...

I was testing the security of my Ubuntu 10.04 64bit install by running a port scan from [URL] and I came upon some odd results. It appears that basically all my ports are closed, but only Port 646 is dropping packets silently. Furthermore, Port 80 is open.

Battlefield 2 server being attacked by packets that creates infinite loop, then when a player disconnects, server crash.
The packets seems to be always the same.....
Attacker Script: [URL]
Script in action:
[Code].....
I need to find a way to block these 4 packets (i think theyre 4 for what i tested) with IP TABLES.
EDIT: There seem to be other different replies, maybe 1 different but no more.... maybe you can find something useful in the script.

Just wanted input for this script i have cobbeled together. Its not done yet. I am trying to think of ways to close up my outgoing while maintaining full functionality of my laptop ( irc, web stuff, a torrent or two, etc.) . Anyways, I have done some myself; as well as, pulling bits and pieces from other stuff out on the web. I am starting to wonder why i have to write a specific rule to check for spoofed packets if my default input is set top drop. wouldnt it be caught?
Code:
#!/bin/bash
### Laptop + Desktop: No Forwarding firewall ip4 / ip6
### Distro > Debian / Ubuntu.
### oliverteasley@gmail.com

I switched over to Fedora a couple of days ago. I'm using the built-in firewall shipped with it but I can't find out how to enable logging of dropped packets. Among others I'd like to use psad that needs firewall logging. Is there an easy way to do this? I'm not an iptables "expert".

I want to capture all packets from site "www.examplesite.com" so I checked its ip address in an ip address look up and it was 123.456.abc.def.So I set my filter to "dst host 23.456.abc.def"However I then realised that multiple ip address point to ww.examplesite.com, for example say the following ips also go to987.654.321.000111.222.333.444So is there a filter that will automatically capture all traffic going to www.examplesite.com or do I have to go and manually find all it's ip addresses and pass them all to the filter?

i have a linux server runnig oracle applications. i need to access this server from putty using ssh through internet. i did by registering my static ip with the dnydns.org and i am able to connect to the server. but now there is no security to authenticate any user as any one knowing the password can login to it.
i thought of configuring the firewall of linux server but the client ip`s are not static and they change continiously. so thought of keeping one more pc between the server and the router which will do the work of authenticating. but i am confuse as how to configure it to allow the packets coming from the internet after authenticating and to by pass the packets generated from internal LAN?

Picture the following:On computer A, local user John (and John alone) has rwx access to file1.txtComputer B also has a local user account named John. If file1.txt was to be copied from computer A to computer B, would the user account John on computer B be able to access it?I guess this wouldn't work using two windows computers due to the User name / GUID relationship. Maybe linux has something similar?

I have a server that I can only access via SSH (it's located far away) and I would like to secure it by blocking all ports except the ones that I need (which are HTTP and SSH). I still want to be able to make outgoing connections to enable software updates and other things.This is my iptables -L -n :
Code:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
DROP tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpts:1:21
DROP tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpts:23:79
DROP tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpts:81:65535
code....
In my opinion, this should block all incoming packets except the ones on port 80 and 22, but allow responses to outgoing connections. But a wget http://google.com does not work, it can't establish the connection.
Maybe this is not the best style for iptables rules, but I want to be absolutely sure to not accidently lock myself out from SSH, so I chose not to configure a "block-everything rule".
Does this configuration not enable incoming packets from connections initiated from inside?

I tried to ask this question in the other thread but the admin was saying to me that my other thread here [URL]..( it was not very much the subject of the thread ) People that use Unix,Mac OSX or any Linux OS all none windows do you need anti-virus program like Norton or Kaspersky? And same with firewall like ZoneAlarm and Comodo ?
Some people say you do not need a anti-virus program like Norton or Kaspersky or any firewall.Other people say you do and some say that Unix and Mac OSX have built in firewall.
And if on uses windows use ZoneAlarm or Comodo has it does alot more than windows firewall and router firewall. Note the admin saying the other thread was why windows get more malware and not very much the subject of the thread to post there.

I am on Linux on machine LOCAL (my notebook).I ssh into a company machine REMOTE which is behind a firewall and ONLY allows incoming ssh connections (port 22), no outbound connections whatsoever. I do have full root access on both, LOCAL and REMOTE, REMOTE is however a VPS and behind a hardware firewall.I now need network access on REMOTE (HTTP and other protocols) for downloading and building some software. I also need to access to NON HTTP protocols such as git.
I was hoping to set up a reverse SSH tunnel for using my LOCAL machine, where I could be running a socks server. So that network access on REMOTE would be redirected over the SSH tunnel to a socks server running on machine LOCAL.How would I go about setting something like this up?

I have done some research on the net and I am battling to find effective methods in other to bypass those irritating ISP traffic shapers. I have used SSH tunneling to reduce latency (which is my primary goal, i dont care about silly torrents, etc) by about 200ms.
Do you know of any other way that I could improve this latency? When I ping my server in Germany (from South Africa) i get a latency of about 185ms... I was hoping to get online gaming traffic to around about 250ms or even less if possible... Right now its sitting on 550ms WITH SSH tunneling and 800ms without it... (to Blizzard servers)
