Re: Proxy server hit... Any ideas?

Mike,

  It seems like you've been gotten one of the many so called 'hackers' who
troll the internet looking for unpatched NT boxen to use as rogue FTP
(music/warez/movie) servers.

  The incidents list sees this sort of post about once a week...
"I run NT, don't know security and got hit...what did I get?"

  I could be just another person to direct you to the same sources the
list always does (netstat, fport, etc...) But I would like to recommend
the following:

  With an unknown backdoor installed on your system, you really can never
know if you've eradicated the intruder.  It is best to not really worry
about what is there (keep the 'pirates booty' if you wish :) ) But focus
on what to do about it.  You need to re-format your drive, start from
scratch with the machine _off_ the public internet until it is fully
patched.  Don't always trust windows update to keep you patched... It may
help you to use a third party utility.

   Good luck rebuilding your system,
         -Russell

Well, I have had my first run-in with a hacker, or was it a virus? I'm
not 100% sure.. Guess I should start from the beginning...

A days ago, I began to get user complaints on the slowness of the
internet. I figured it was mostly them just wanting something to
complain about, so I did what all crappy admins do, I ignored it. Well,
last night the box was rebooted after some software was updated. Today
people were complaining about how PAINFULLY slow the internet was, so I
looked at the proxy server. NT4 running proxy3. I know, there is newer
better stuff, but its what I have to work with. :) SO... I looked at the
processes and noticed the CPU hovering at 35-50%.. Way too high. So a
quick look at the process list showed two things that I didn't remember
needing to be there, win.exe and start.exe. Next move was to find them,
and they were in the winnt\system\ folder. What I also found odd was
that there were three new folders in that directory all created on the
8th, NT, tools, and win.

Here are the contents, respectively.
1. 1fg.dll, 1gno32.dll, 1s.dll, 1t.exe(antivirus sees this one as a
backdoor Trojan), 132.dll, 1gn32.dll, 1idv32.dll, 1sf32.dll, 1ygwin1.dll
(says it's a Cygwin POSIX Emulation DLL), 132.dll.bkup

2. temp, servUDaemon.ini, services.exe, servUStartUpLog.txt, in,
srvss.exe, start.exe, BugSlayerUtil.dll (says it's a Bugslayer Utility
Routine), and _zoLibr.dll

3. (folder) FL, cygwin.dll, MS.dll, secure.bat (see below), temp,
x32.dll, cfg.dll, IGNo32.dll, secure1.bat (see below) pidv32.dll,
win.exe, x32.dll.bkup

SO, anyone know what I have or what hit me? From looking at the sercure
and secure1 batch files, it looks like a root kit... But I'mm new at
this side of security I'mm aCiscoo guy...)

Last thing, the logs show that the attacker was hitting the
\scripts\sample\ folder... Meaning I think he was trying to use the old
IIS Sample Scripts to execute local code... Not sure if he was
successful...

Thanks in advance!!
