Please post the source if you have it. Was it standard? Does it do anything special? If you do have the installer, it makes all the difference, and if your report is from the installer, then great - no need to post the source. Rgds, Scott josh wrote:
A client of our companies had 5 or so RedHat 6.2 boxes rooted (default install, everything enabled - that's what they get for not letting us build 'em ;) The attackers left behind a tarball called 'shitc.tgz' in /usr/bin/.../.terminfo There is a modified sshd /bin/fgry which listens on port 5665 and /bin/in.slogind that listens on port 19000. There was also a bouncer, mdidentd, etc. Plus a litle shell script called "die" to install all the good stuff for you. It left text files in /dev/hdaa, /dev/ddth3, /dev/ddtz1 that are config files for the modified programs to ignore. Binaries replaced are: ls, named, nc, netstat, ps, pstree, rpc.statd, sloging, syslogd, and top. The tarball also came with some DoS tools - boink, bonk, citra, flip, frag, jolt, lod, land, land2, land2, moyari13, nestea, ntear, smbquery, ssping, syndrop, tear2, teardrop, w2, whisper, ww. The rootkit also came with a bunch of network scanning utilities and the like. Just a heads up - scan your boxes for ports 5665 and 19000. There also could be processes listening on ports 24, 63, 1900, and 6667. (If you don't already have ircd running) -- josh
