Hi again!


Sorry for disturbing, it’s not an ASSP problem!



Have been going about all logging and there seems to be some botnet trying to 
send a lot of spam by trying to spoof past ASSP or sending “Relays” and there 
is a lot of them. And I must have had perfect timing for when it all started.

Within minutes after I upgraded the “attack” started.

Trying to send from thousands of IP’s in India, Pakistan, Vietnam and so forth…

Assp is working hard, I have no way of blocking them all.



I guess we have to ride this out.



Anyone else experiencing this right now?

Any ideeas of how to mitigate?



Regards,

Pontus

All changes between 19007 and 19019 are analyzer related only. Except, the 
default value for

'DoNoFromSelect','Select Checks for From: and Sender: Header'

is changed from 63 to 59

Betreff:        [Assp-test] smtp sessions going nuts

  _____



Hello!



This morning I upgraded to asspboxes  from ASSP version 2.6.2  *Fortress*  
build 19007  to ASSP version 2.6.4  *SPAM-Evaporator*  build 19019

After upgrading I got a lot of service mail of errors, like this:

error: Worker_4 accept to client failed IO::Socket::INET=GLOB(0x7ff2f943e5b0) 
(timeout: 2 s) : Transport endpoint is not connected



full line in log is:



Jan-22-19 10:06:08 [Worker_4] Error: Worker_4 accept to client failed 
IO::Socket::INET=GLOB(0x7ff2f943e5b0) (timeout: 2 s) : Transport endpoint is 
not connected



match in 'NotifyRe' was: >Error:< - for regular expression: >error:<



Why?

I have no idea, it should indicate that it is having problem connecting to the 
mailserver to deliver, but I can find no problem on that end(testing from 
elsewhere or smtp connections on that end)

Looking at my cactigraphs told me that smtp sessions flew from nice and easy 
average 2 to 46, maybe not so strange if it keeps dropping sessions to the 
mailserver, maybe even before establishing one.



I reverted back to 19007 on one to see if the drops stopped. It did, a little, 
but not back to “Normal”.



Any major change to transport session back to mailserver/s that could be the 
problem?

Or does my upgrade happen to be done in the middle/start of a strange 
spam-attack?



Regards,

Pontus
