Okay, here's the latest 'craze'... Machines infect with RAT are hitting my IP right now, from all over the place (Belgium and Germany mostly, but also UK and Italy) Something new - there seems to be an exploit (won't call it more than that for the moment) that uses TCP 1711 (registered service=pptconference: info at http://isc.incidents.org/port_details.html?port=1711), mostly from sources in the Netherlands and Hungary (one in each country is quite persistent, at 12 in the last 5 mins). This maybe akin to the P2P exploits used by many malware writers, but specifically targetted at businesses and SOHO users. There's a UDP service on this port as well, but I'm only seeing TCP for now, indicating endpoint-to-endpoint connection; just the sort of thing malware needs to spread. There's also something banging away on TCP 20237, from domain 'flanagan.ugr.es', that I can't ID yet... Anyone else seeing these?
