[Declude.JunkMail] SmarterMail Admins - Relay Hole

2007-02-07 Thread Michael Jaworski
We have been using Declude, Sniffer and invURIBL for years now with great
success. But yesterday we got bit by a phish attack through SmarterMail.
They used SMPT authentication to bypass all the time and money we spent on
defenses against the bad guys. The root of the problem:  SmarterMail is
lacking simple password rules.  For more of the story see:

Well, might be news to you but Imail has the same problem. There was
discussion about this on the Imail list awhile back and IIRC Kevin said it
is now on the list of features to be added.

Are you using the Declude Hijack functionality?  That would have quarantined
any unauthorized bulk mail from leaving the system.

In the meantime a javascript could be added to the form to validate the 
password supports your requirements. I have done this with other parts of the 
interface. Like only allowing forwarding email to the same domain and Removing 
unwanted report as spam button.

Good point Chris. Not up to this point. We have been pretty lucky up to this
date.  We are in the process of turning it on as a stop gap against the lack
of software password rules. SmarterMail and now it looks like iMail too,
need to be part of the solution not the problem.

[Declude.JunkMail] OT

2007-02-07 Thread Michael Hoyt
I am finally getting my SPF records up but would like some comments on
whether I got it right.

I would like to be able to send email from any IP address in my
216.15.92.0/25 network.  Currently I have MX records for mail.commarts.com
(216.15.92.3) which is the only mail server that receives mail and
direct.commarts.com (216.15.92.15) and smtp.commarts.com (216.15.92.13).

Using the Wizard at openspf.org I generated the following SPF records:

commarts.com. IN TXT v=spf1 ip4:216.15.92.0/25 a mx ~all
direct.commarts.com. IN TXT v=spf1 a -all
mail.commarts.com. IN TXT v=spf1 a -all
smtp.commarts.com. IN TXT v=spf1 a -all

After reading page 15 of the Whitepaper pertaining to the ~all,-all or ?all
part of the text in the first record my question is: If I know that ALL
email from my domain will originate from 216.15.92.0/25 should the text be
-all and not ~all?

And my last question is are the three txt records mentioning my MX servers
necessary if I have 216.15.92.0/25 in the first record?

Thank you in advance for any insight.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: SPF record question

2007-02-07 Thread Darin Cox
If your MX and A records are also in the 216.15.92.0/25 network, then you
don't need to specify the a and mx parameters, so you could simplify to

No enforcement, other hosts may send mail for the domain
v=spf1 ip4:216.15.92.0/25 ?all

Soft fail if policy violated.  Filters may or may not block on soft fail.
v=spf1 ip4:216.15.92.0/25 ~all


Hard fail if policy violated.  Filters should block on hard fail.
v=spf1 ip4:216.15.92.0/25 -all

However, if you send from an MX or A record (web server) that is not in the
216.15.92.0/25 subnet then you may need those.

If you use a soft or hard fail policy, it's very important that you identify
_all_ sources of outbound mail for the domain, including all mail servers,
marketing mail engines, webservers, external hosts, etc.  Otherwise you're
liable to have mail blocked as a result of your policy.  I've see this
happen with a number of larger organizations, where they have forgotten web
servers with form-to-mail functions, marketing personnel sending out
newsletters, or mobile users using ISP SMTP servers.

Regarding your last three records, do you have subdomains with MX records
for direct.commarts.com, mail.commarts.com, and smtp.commarts.com?  I.e. do
you receive mail to @direct.commarts.com, @mail.commarts.com, and
@smtp.commarts.com addresses?  If not, you don't need those records.

Hope this helps,

Darin.

Those are not the only DNS attacks...

TWC had one as well, I believe. One of their servers was knocked off the
net two days ago. I was monitoring my DNS changes at network solutions,
waiting for propagation and I kept getting random packet loss on it.

Since you are using Declude, start using Hijack NOW! That is for starters.

I called Howard on this, but for everyone else's info, if you are seeing
this, look for ssm.exe to be a running process.  I found this on an
Imail server that I administer for another company this morning.  The
file was showing processing time in the task manager and showed up on
the Services list at Security Systems Manager, but the file had a
modified date of 2/5/07 and no updated had been done on that server for
over a week. Stopping this service stopped the junk messages from going
out.

 

Neither F-prot or Symantec showed this file as a virus; however I did
submit it to Symantec for analysis.

Howard
What version of Declude?
Do you have Hijack?
If so turn it on.
Do your delcude logs show anything?
Are you scanning all outgoing mail as well?

If you are behind a firewall, ( you better be)  shut down imail and check
the firewall logs for outgoing smtp traffic.
Perhaps even disallow outgoing smtp to see if you are blocking  traffic in
the firewall log.
Or try to  put a port sniffer on to see if somethings still going out.

If Imail is off and you are getting traffic, you have to find the bugger and
kill it. That can be a chore!

Since you are using Declude, start using Hijack NOW! That is for starters.
Review the logs to see where the IP is and block that IP.

I called Howard on this, but for everyone else's info, if you are seeing
this, look for ssm.exe to be a running process.  I found this on an Imail
server that I administer for another company this morning.  The file was
showing processing time in the task manager and showed up on the Services
list at Security Systems Manager, but the file had a modified date of 2/5/07
and no updated had been done on that server for over a week. Stopping this
service stopped the junk messages from going out.

Going aGoogling found that the Intel LANDesk uses a file called ssm.exe and
there are a couple of programs listed as monitors using it, so be careful
before just deleting that file.

 

Exactly where was the file?

 

Since Howard is running IMail 8.15 this means that his server has been
compromised ala the SMTP vulnerability that is fixed only in 8.22 (patched)
and 9.1. So, it is not a virus that would be found by F-prot or Symantec,
but a server hijack or comprise.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Need hep - mail server sending out stock reports email

2007-02-07 Thread Matt




Howard,

These are always blended threats. You were hacked through another
mechanism and through that mechanism this file was placed on your
system. There's a 99.9% chance that your server is still hacked and
that this program can be placed there again, or might even appear
automatically at your next reboot.

You are running an insecure version of IMail, and this is the most
likely way that you were hacked. You need to be on 8.22 with the
latest hotfix or 9.1 and above.

In the mean time, you should firewall your server so that only the
minimum necessary ports are open. This can inhibit the botnet owners
from controlling you and it will most likely stop what is going on
since they use automation to control their zombies, but that certainly
wouldn't mean that you are safe.

Once hacked, the best advice is always to reformat and reinstall, plus
immediately change all administrator passwords everywhere on your
network and break all network shares from the hacked box to others.
Keep a unique password on the hacked box until you have rebuilt it.

While it is possible that one could fully remove all elements of a
hack, it is neither likely nor safe to assume that you could, and it
generally takes more hours to fiddle with things rather than format and
rebuild it. Also, until you upgrade to a non-hackable version, you are
at risk of being re-hacked, so there is no sense in rebuilding until
then. The only way to protect an older version of IMail from these
exploits is to firewall it and place the SMTP service behind a proxy
that won't forward the exploitable commands. It is of course easier
just to upgrade, and at least 8.22 with the latest hotfix is very solid
and not that much different from 8.15 on the surface, however Declude
will need to be upgraded to version 3 or 4.

Sorry for the grim outlook, but it is all good advice.

Matt

Need hep - mail server sending out stock reports email
  
  
  Going
aGoogling found that the Intel
LANDesk uses a file called ssm.exe and there are a couple of programs
listed as
monitors using it, so be careful before just deleting that file.
  
  Exactly
where was the file?
  
  Since Howard
is running IMail 8.15 this
means that his server has been compromised ala the SMTP vulnerability
that is
fixed only in 8.22 (patched) and 9.1. So, it is not a virus that would
be found
by F-prot or Symantec, but a server hijack or comprise.

  I called
Howard on this,
but for everyone elses info, if you are seeing this, look for ssm.exe
to
be a running process. I found this on an Imail server that I
administer
for another company this morning. The file was showing processing time
in
the task manager and showed up on the Services list at Security Systems
Manager, but the file had a modified date of 2/5/07 and no updated had
been
done on that server for over a week. Stopping this service stopped the
junk
messages from going out.
  
  Neither
F-prot or
Symantec showed this file as a virus; however I did submit it to
Symantec for
analysis.

SMSS.exe is also a legitimate program in the Windows OS (Session 
Manager Subsystem ).
