We were alerted to a recent break in attempt yesterday evening on one of our
Linux servers.  The source IP's were as follows;

207.206.6.9

209.100.48.251

If anyperson is interested in searching their logs for traffic to and or
from these IP addresses, you can probably do some pro-active monitoring to
avoid any problems, as there should be no traffic from these IP's. I have
contacted the owners of the address segments.  But these boxes appear to be
"owned".  It appears that one IP compromised a router from an ISP to add
routes for currently unused IP subnets that the ISP had. The tools that were
used appear to be Queso and a perl script named Cracker.  Root was not
obtained, but several files on the box were corrupted and or compromised.
If anyperson finds these IP addresses, and wishes to investigate further,
please email me at the address below.  Thank you for any help in this
matter.
