Chris, In the OSSTMM 2.5 we have included the following as well: -Enumerate the VPN servers using TCP/UDP scans. -Use scans searching for response to different IP Types Packets. -Use ike scans to fingerprint the VPN server implementation and version. -Protocol Responses PPTP : IP Type: 47 (GRE) TCP: 1723 IPSec:1. UDP: 500 (IKE) IP Type: 50 (ESP) IP Type: 51 (AH) L2TP:1. UDP : 1701 L2F:1. UDP: 1701 -Outline the VPN security policy using different authentication / encryption algorithms. -Verify the existence of mechanism to control the client machine misconfiguration and unfiltered ports -Check the ability of the client software to allow split tunneling (default route to internet and static routes to the corporate network) Sincerely, -pete Pete Herzog, Managing Director Institute for Security and Open Methodologies __________________________________________ ISECOM is the accreditation authority for the OPST - OSSTMM Professional Security Tester and OPSA - OSSTMM Professional Security Analyst

The topics I have covered and documented fully so far include: - IPsec enumeration, scanning for UDP/500 and using Roy Hills' tools (ike-scan) to identify the gateway - Various overflows relating to ISAKMP / IKE packets being sent to UDP/500, as in MITRE CVE - Offline aggressive mode IKE pre-shared key cracking, by sniffing VPN traffic and using IKECrack - Check Point aggressive mode IKE username enumeration (using Roy Hills' fw1-ike-userguess over UDP/500) - Check Point Telnet authentication service (TCP/259) user enumeration - Check Point information leak attacks that reveal network interface addresses, over both TCP/256 and TCP/264 - Check Point RDP encapsulation filter bypass techniques, using UDP/259 - Offline Microsoft PPTP (TCP/1723) MS-CHAP challenge-response cracking Two areas in which I've identified a need for tools are: - Check Point brute force password grinding tool for FWZ or IKE, to compromise SecuRemote username/password combinations - PPTP brute force tool, to compromise those user/password combinations also Does anyone know of such offensive brute force tools, or techniques I have missed (against ISAKMP and Check Point)? if so, any input would be greatly appreciated.
