[Declude.Virus] Sobig- The Morning After

2003-08-23 Thread Doug McKee
THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE GROUP  !
DECLUDE IS AN INCREDIBLE PRODUCT  !!!
KUDUS to you Scott.
Grateful THANKS to all the members who contributed yesterday !

I usually delete about 2500-3000 files from the virus folder every
morning.
The load in the last 24 hours was a few over 20,000.

The banname feature and the badheaders caught about a bunch.

The info received from the group allowed us to prepare and to advise our
clients for what could have been much worse than it was.

Blocking the port kept a PC somewhere in our network from doing any
damage. It made over 1200 attempts to contact a server outside our
network in the first hour. We will hunt it down and make sure it gets
cleaned up. 

I am honored to be a member of this group.
Sincere Thanks,
Doug McKee COO

Agreed! My users were protected even before receiving the updated DAT's due
to banning the .pif's.
HERE HERE!
Thanks in large part to Declude we have had NO incursions of Sobig in the 
networks we manage! Hats Off!

 Blocking the port kept a PC somewhere in our network
 from doing any damage. It made over 1200 attempts to
 contact a server outside our network in the first hour.
 We will hunt it down and make sure it gets cleaned up.
I've had only one user that attempted to make a request on UDP 8998. They
were contacted immediately and taken care of. Interestingly enough, this
user utilized the mail services of a different, and obviously unprotected
system.
But now, one must wonder... what's next?
For a long time now we've had a Black First policy on all of our 
networks, further reinforced yesterday when we temporarily restricted 
outbound traffic to ONLY port 80  443 for all workstations (no IM, no 
music, nada - you can imagine the moaning that resulted from that).

We've got a lot of fire power invested in detecting and rejecting trouble 
from the wild wired world... but nobody can completely cure a DoS, or 
worse - something completely new... Sobig is definitely a scary customer... 
not as bad as it could be (I dare not speak of the full blown CCA type 
attacks we've simulated in our RD)... but this one sure has us _AWAKE_ ...

_M

(CCA = Coordinated Cellular Automata. We develop self-supporting 
distributed systems so we have to play white-hat/black-hat games to ensure 
the designs are as secure as we can make them... This issue of Sobig is 
only a few critical pieces shy of being apocalyptically scary.)

[Declude.Virus] No wonder viruses spread

2003-08-23 Thread David Dodell
Here is a snipet of some on going email I'm having with a LAN
administrator at a university hospital.  I forwarded a copy of the
Declude virus catch, to show them the IP #'s of the machine that sent
the Sobig virus.   I can't get it through his head that the headers
are forged, and irrevelant.

My last message to him pleaded to have him establish a telephone
dialog with me so I could explain the message to him ... I politely
told him if he wants to take the chance that a workstation is infected
within their LAN based on the assumption that he might really be
wrong, he was welcomed to the havoc it will cause.

sigh

===Original message text===
David,

In looking at the header you sent Marcy, the subject of the message is
Undeliverable: Re: Details which means our e-mail system was sending you a
message back that it couldn't deliver a message from you.

My best guess is that Sobig may be on your pc, and you have a contact
somewhere to someone at uch that is no longer here or valid.  Not too
uncommon for we changed our domain last year.

Furthermore, our e-mail system doesn't allow .pif or .scr attachments and
will strip them if attempted whether infected or not.

We appreciate the heads up, but based upon the header it looks like it was a
bounced message from you that was infected and thus the hit by your
antivirus.

If you have any additional questions, comments, or concerns don't hesitate
to let me know.

This came from David who said this came from one of our computers.  He said
he was this stat technology.
