On the 24th our ISP pulled the plug on our co-located servers. They said our
servers were pumping 20 mbs each of data through the network. Upon
investigation, we found around 20 ping.exe processes running in the task
manager. As soon as we rebooted, the ping.exe processes were gone and
everything was fine. The ping processes were pinging yahoo.com BTW.
One of the network engineers at the center said that he was familiar with
this hack. He said that:
"There is a program out on the net called Win Management, with it a hacker
can "sneak" into the FTP port (as he explained it, they ride on the
coat-tails of an active FTP user), then they run rsh.exe and spawn the
ping.exe processes."
I was wondering if this is in fact an exploit in Serv-u (which we use) or
any FTP server for that matter.
What we did, anyway, was to change the FTP port from 21 to a higher value.
Does any one know if the network engineer's assessment of this hack is
accurate or not?
Thanks,
John Cesta
