Re: Strange back-orifice looking scan...

Hey Jeff,
Port 1214 used by Kazaa aka Morpheus, this is obviously the remote port that the "scanner" is using. Port 31336 IS used by Back Orifice 2000 aka BO2k aka DeepBO (this is a special release of BO btw).
It appears the attacker may be doing one of two things:
a/ He/she has somehow manipulated Kazaa to scan not for other Kazaa users on port 1214, but to scan for BO infected machines on port 31336. The other possibility is simple - theyve written a scanner or customised the settings of a current scanner to have the local scanning port on port 1214 to make it look like its Kazaa doing it automatically, however they are actively portscanning either your network I wasnt sure if it was a network you had) or just your lone box.
This is just a suggestion, but the best one I could come up with :)
To check the validity of my theory, if it is a box with Kazaa operating on it it should have port 80 open if i recall, showing all shared files within the Kazaa program - they may have patched this in the later versions that have been released lately of course :)
Hope this helps you

Is your box REALLY secure?

This popped up on ingress this morning, apparently with forged source addresses (given the timing). Didn't get a packet capture but just
the signature (we block Back Orifice ports):

Any clues on this one?  Looks new to me...
