Security :: Sample Attack On Honeypot System?
Nov 23, 2010
I have implemented two machines one for honeypot(192.168.100.10) and another(192.168.100.20) to remotely log the honeypot log file using syslog. Inside honeypot I emulated another 3 machines with services on virtual IPs of that same block.Now honeypot is working and I can see the logs generating as I did a portscan(nmap) on those virtual IPs from .20 machine.All of the machines are running ubuntu.
But does anyone know any s/w or tools which originally attackers use so that I can get a clear picture of what happens from the logs. Having problems creating these attack scenarios.

I am just out of curiosity working with honeypot and found there are two way for arpd to route the unused IP to honeypot with blackhole and arp spoofing.Now to test, I am arp spoofing 5 machines from 192.168.100.41 to .45 and also honeypot is monitoring this range too. But I have setup a real machine with webserver in between this range and gave IP address 192.168.100.45.Now logically as arp and honeypot both are monitoring this range so they capture this request as below from log:
PHP Code:
arpd[1690]: arpd_lookup: no entry for 192.168.100.45
arpd[1690]: arpd_send: who-has 192.168.100.45 tell 192.168.100.10
arpd[1690]: arpd_send: who-has 192.168.100.45 tell 192.168.100.10
arpd[1690]: arp reply 192.168.100.45 is-at 08:00:27:00:76:e5
arpd[1690]: arp reply 192.168.100.45 is-at 08:00:27:00:76:e5
code....
Now arpd is redirecting the traffic to honeypot machine as there is a real system with real MAC address. But from 192.168.200.10 I can also view the webpage of 192.168.100.45 machine. But most of the time it says "Connection Timed out".
Should it be acting like this or it shouldn't be showing me the webpage at all?

I have just configured Centos 5.5 LocalMailServer with fetchmail and sendmail , Proxy with Squid and FileServer with samba. Now my concern is security.. How can i protect my server with outside attack. Will I need to block some ports or I need special tools or script so no one from outside can attack my machine. My machine is working on intranet with local ip only.. No web server or static ip exists. Machine is connected with ADSL router to access internet.

The 605-page PDF document reads like a listing of the pros and cons for a huge array of defensive and counterintelligence approaches and technologies that an entity might adopt in defending its networks. Of particular interest to me was the section on deception technologies, which discusses the use of honeynet technology to learn more about attackers� methods, as well as the potential legal and privacy aspects of using honeynets. Another section delves into the challenges of attributing the true origin(s) of a computer network attack.

I went away from home for a few days, ... Now I am back at home and noticed, that my server is going out with 100% available bandwidth. The server is mainly Http / Ftp / Mail server, so I stopped all services, to see which one it is. ervices stopped, still 100Mbps go out like ants in the flood.
I updated the system, made a backup, installed IPtraf. It seems that I have something 'installed' and my server is running something to attack User computers. It seems to try to find something on random IP's random ports. I am a little bit confused now. As long as my sites are running, I'm ~OK~ but sooner or later I would like to have my bandwidth back. How could I try to hunt down which service/app/process got hacked?
It seems that the monetary system of our society got now more enemy's than friends. Capitalism seems to reach it's end. But my server is serving also ART! Sooner or later we will need to pay copyright even for our thoughts. I was reading today, that the French president wants to punish file sharing as his wife made 3 albums, and wants to get some money ..

Attack Sneaks Rootkits Into Linux Kernel Quote: A researcher at Black Hat Europe this week will demonstrate a more stealthy way to hack Linux
Apr 14, 2009 | 04:21 PM
By Kelly Jackson Higgins
DarkReading
Kernel rootkits are tough enough to detect, but a researcher this week has demonstrated an even sneakier method of hacking Linux. The attack attack exploits an oft-forgotten function in Linux versions 2.4 and above in order to quietly insert a rootkit into the operating system kernel as a way to hide malware processes, hijack system calls, and open remote backdoors into the machine, for instance. At Black Hat Europe this week in Amsterdam, Anthony Lineberry, senior software engineer for Flexilis, will demonstrate how to hack the Linux kernel by exploiting the driver interface to physically addressable memory in Linux, called /dev/mem.
"One of bonuses of this [approach] is that most kernel module rootkits make a lot noise when they are inserting [the code]. This one is directly manipulating" the memory, so it's less noticeable, he says. The /dev/mem "device" can be opened like a file, and you can read and write to it like a text file, Lineberry says. It's normally used for debugging the kernel, for instance.
Lineberry has developed a proof-of-concept attack that reads and writes to kernel memory as well as stores code inside the kernel, and he plans to release a framework at Black Hat that lets you use /dev/mem to "implement rootkit-like behaviors," he says. The idea of abusing /dev/mem to hack the Linux kernel is not really new, he says. "People have known what you can do with these /dev/mem devices, but I have never seen any rootkits with dev/mem before," he says.
Quote: "The problem with kernel-based rootkits is that the rootkit can mitigate [detection] because it has control," he says. "It's a race in the kernel to see who's going to see who first." [URL]

I have full hdd encryption with a rather long key. The thing is the FBI might just show up at my house one day and have a warrant for my PC, and who wants the government looken through there life? I have a few plans on geting my PC shut down before they can get there hands on it. This is all well and good, but if they can sniff my key from the ram It doesn't matter what my key is or weather they find the computer on or off. Anyhow, i was wondering if there was some way I could add a script to the shut-down process that would over-write the ram.

I may not be a code worrior, yet I have been a Ubuntu convert from Apple for about 3yrs now. Since 1984-2006 now hackers or viruses. And Until now Ubuntu has been clean, well I have been good with repos, etc.
1. Recently I found "Odd" behavior with my Amarok 1.4 player, ffmpeg, winff.
2. During a Synaptic upgrade there were some "unauthorized changes". I have seen this before due to some of my software, so I ignored it. . .
To my bewilderment, "It" erased Amarok 1.4 player, ffmpeg, winff, all image kernels, claimed domain over my system permissions, and external HD. B4 I shutdown, downloaded LUCID 10.4. . . restarted, then copied over all info possible to minimize a complete delete of my system. Upon restart, indeed all kernel images were gone, Only live CD allowed me access to repartition my HD.
NOW. I have Lucid running, and have been denied access to my external HD and partitioned (internal HD). I used Nautilus to copy over files to my internal laptop HD, yet permissions continue to be an issue. The INFECTED FOLDERS are owned by "User 999-user#999. I must micro manage every folder and file to gain "partial permission". The dialog box stutters and never allows me to go down to "Root"

Using Opera 10.61 and 10.62, I find that any secure website I access, such as a bank, the lock icon in the address bar is replaced by a question mark. Clicking on it brings up a window, stating that the connection is not secure, that the server does not support TLS Renegotiation. Doing some internet searches for "opera tls renegotiation" brought me to a page at the Opera website, where they discuss this issue. The issue is generic, not limited to Opera, affecting the TLS protocol, and it potentially enables a man-in-the-middle to renegotiate a "secure" connection between a server and client, issuing own commands to the server. Opera has addressed the problem on the client end, but now servers need to be upgraded too. None of the HTTPS sites I have tried have upgraded their servers, if the information provided by the Opera browser is correct.
My questions: how feasible is such a MITM attack, what level of resources would such an attack require? What, if anything, would the attacker need to know about the client and/or server to mount the attack? Would I be better off using Firefox, or is Firefox simply oblivious of the problem and not issuing warnings for that reason?

This is an excerpt from the Linux man page for mktemp command: "mktemp is provided to allow shell scripts to safely use temporary files. Traditionally, many shell scripts take the name of the program with the PID as a suffix and use that as a temporary filename. This kind of naming scheme is predictable and the race condition. It creates is easy for an attacker to win. A safer, though still inferior approach is to make a temporary directory using the same naming scheme. While this does allow one to guarantee that a temporary file will not be subverted, it still allows a simple denial of service attack. For these reasons it is suggested that mktemp be used instead."
- How can a denial-of-service attack be carried out if a directory name is known?
- Why is it important to use mktemp to generate a sufficiently random file/directory name for temporary files?

In my Open-Suse server I have a script, where makepasswd output(by default it generates similar passwords: cGyTbqpr, tpJ1LA, 33EXdo) is redirected to mkpasswd(which uses DES by default) in order to generate salted hash of this previously generated password. I would like to test the strength of this system. I have a quad core CPU, and if I start John The Ripper like this(I want to use -incremental:all flag):
john -incremental:all passwd
..only one core is utilized at 100%. Is there a possibility to make all four cores to crack this password? Or is this possible only after reprogramming John The Ripper? Or what is the algorithm for generating passwords with with -incremental:all flag? I mean if John generates passwords randomly in brute-force mode, then it's smart to start four different John processes simultaneously because then one of those four will find the password firs

Context: I happened to read through an old presentation today on OpenBSD's cryptography page called "A Future-Adaptable Password Scheme". In spite of its age, it still seems relevant and useful. One of the topics it discusses is the problem of "offline" attacks, where an attacker is not slowed down by any system (or other external) security. It's attacker vs. the computational cost of guessing passwords in such a scenario.
Specific question: On several unix-like systems (including Linux), the salt helps make building rainbow tables computationally expensive. It's not enough to guess a password and hash it; the proper salt must be provided as well, or the password will not be discovered.
However, the salt (or the hashed salt) seems to be visible in /etc/shadow. For example:
Code:
foouser:$6$U9a6HdUY$U3qFDMen0wDmL0x5WHm2OWhOgzOZ4MCQxV/oY.i5RhfXCQrLifIVkBpWOd1CbCGimVCjmfxZAaud/sXDf1.mv0:14733:0:99999:7::: So in an offline attack, a rainbow table could be built using precisely that salt, correct? (Yes, I realize /etc/shadow is not readable by non-root users, but I am considering an offline attack.) Building the salt (or the hashed salt) into the hashed password seems to defeat the purpose of using a salt altogether.

Really interested if anyone knows of any pre-compiled or pre-built demo applications that could run on a MySQL back-end with a web-based front-end?
Ideally, it would be really, really simple having a web front-end that attaches to the database and just either reads data from it (or even enter data into it). Nothing too flash.
I'm thinking along the lines of a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MYSQL, PHP) install but I'm not a developer so if I have to build something I'll probably be out of my league here Does MySQL/Apache etc. have sample/demo databases with a web-front end application that could be fired up and installed without having to build the environment?
Years ago I remember M$ had the PetShop .Net app running on a SQL2000 environment easy to setup and simple enough to showcase the database and a simple front-end. A colleague wrote a small .NET app to just read the data from it and continuously scroll the data in a text box which was fine. Something like that on Linux would be perfect.

I heard that we will not be given static ip address, only paid one will get static ip address that can be used for web server implementation. If my system doesnt have static address then can others access my system?
