RE: Subseven Scans

[Rob Keown <Keown () MACDIRECT COM>]

They were caught by a IDS product outside of the firewall. And they where
just port probes. There are about 7 different signatures for SubSeven on the
IDS (mostly to spot victims inside the perimeter). So I can only say they
were probes to that port. I am looking for 12345 as well since some here
report seeing these at the same time.

I have not looked at any evidence logs to see if there is anything else I
can spot.

Rob,

Can you be more specific?  When you say "subseven
scans" are you referring to the default port?  If so,
how do you know they were intended for subseven, and
not the Linux worm (Lion or Ramen, I can't remember
which) that utilized the same port? 

Just curious as to what other info you can
provide...assuming, of course, that you're not simply
talking about SYN packets that got dropped at the
firewall...

Thanks
