Hi Security-basics, I was going through all my security logs today and I noticed something a little odd, and wonderd if anyone could offer any insight? I am not that good at detailed security! I have a IPBlock assigned from my ISP, where 81.174.224.68 to 81.174.224.70. As I understand it, 68 is a broadcast address, 69 is assigned to the router, 70 is for a server, which I dont use at the present time. Now, in my snort logs, which is connected to the outside of the firewall I get the following logs.. [**] [1:483:2] ICMP PING CyberKit 2.2 Windows [**] [Classification: Misc activity] [Priority: 3] 01/15-02:49:35.625784 81.174.224.69 -> 81.174.224.70 ICMP TTL:111 TOS:0xA0 ID:45600 IpLen:20 DgmLen:92 Type:8 Code:0 ID:512 Seq:52213 ECHO [Xref => http://www.whitehats.com/info/IDS154] [**] [1:483:2] ICMP PING CyberKit 2.2 Windows [**] [Classification: Misc activity] [Priority: 3] 01/15-02:49:35.641759 81.174.224.69 -> 81.174.224.68 ICMP TTL:110 TOS:0xA0 ID:45598 IpLen:20 DgmLen:92 Type:8 Code:0 ID:512 Seq:51701 ECHO [Xref => http://www.whitehats.com/info/IDS154] [**] [1:483:2] ICMP PING CyberKit 2.2 Windows [**] [Classification: Misc activity] [Priority: 3] 01/15-02:49:35.642071 81.174.224.69 -> 81.174.224.70 ICMP TTL:110 TOS:0xA0 ID:45600 IpLen:20 DgmLen:92 Type:8 Code:0 ID:512 Seq:52213 ECHO [Xref => http://www.whitehats.com/info/IDS154] [**] [1:483:2] ICMP PING CyberKit 2.2 Windows [**] [Classification: Misc activity] [Priority: 3] 01/15-02:49:35.649566 81.174.224.69 -> 81.174.224.71 ICMP TTL:111 TOS:0xA0 ID:45601 IpLen:20 DgmLen:92 Type:8 Code:0 ID:512 Seq:52469 ECHO [Xref => http://www.whitehats.com/info/IDS154] [**] [1:483:2] ICMP PING CyberKit 2.2 Windows [**] [Classification: Misc activity] [Priority: 3] 01/15-02:49:35.665945 81.174.224.69 -> 81.174.224.71 ICMP TTL:110 TOS:0xA0 ID:45601 IpLen:20 DgmLen:92 Type:8 Code:0 ID:512 Seq:52469 ECHO [Xref => http://www.whitehats.com/info/IDS154] Now, I thought of welchia or one of its many variants, and all machines are clean, the DHCP records show only one machine on the network connected mostly, thats my machine. It's clean. What could be causing these broadcasts?
