Re: 'Code Red' does not seem to be scanning for IIS

In short, it looks like there's two sets of worms out there. One is
scanning large contiguous netblocks in an obvious fashion, the other is
hunting and pecking about random IP addresses.

Wrong!
What is happening is the worm always hits port 80 if it hits port 80 (
regardless if its apache or iis... its port 80 ) it then drops the buffer
overflow code on it.
I have seen 4800 attacks on 3 class c's so far  I am about to hook in a
few more sensors all night.


The worm attacks a random ip on port 80 if the port is closed you see
this:

Jul 19 19:04:49 ephesians snort: IDS3/scan_Traceroute
TCP: 199.103.224.4:3183 ->
 216.84.196.110:80
Jul 19 19:04:49 ephesians snort: IDS3/scan_Traceroute
TCP: 199.103.224.4:3183 ->
 216.84.196.110:80

If port 80 is open you will then see this:

Jul 19 17:59:52 ephesians/216.84.194.200 snort: IDS552/web-iis_IIS ISAPI
Overflo
w ida: 203.69.169.4:2218 -> 216.84.194.3:80
Jul 19 17:59:52 ephesians/216.84.194.200 snort: IDS552/web-iis_IIS ISAPI
Overflow ida: 203.69.169.4:2218 -> 216.84.194.3:80

Also to add this is crashing novell bordermanager servers, cisco ios (
with web administration enabled etc etc... )

Hope this helps someone.
