Src port 80 seems fishy , right ?
They might be trying to "hide" by using port 80 !

BTW does any one know if there can be a valid packet from src port 80 ->
dest port 53 ?

Subject: [Snort-users] 17203 portscan alerts in 23 hours from same IP


Snort 1.8.6 (Build 105) to MySQL on darwin- using ACID.


I've gotten used to seeing portscans lasting from a few seconds to a few
minutes, and from *transient* IP's unlike 192.193.195.132 (one of
citigroup's web servers, compromised?).
All activity is from port 80 and looks like it's scanning several ports
between 1951 and 2014, over and over again.  I know the person on the
scanned machine uses yahoo me$$@#%r on occasion but I'd never seen this
raised before.  so if this is not a false positive would it look like more
of a targetted scan?

I'm guessing this might be something to NOT be concerned with, but I'd like
to learn more about it so if you can share some info or insight about it
that'' help me see the larger picture I'd appreciate and benefit from it.

Thank you!
