Rootkit Log - BioALIEN - 01-04-2008 03:35 PM

I installed ispcp latest build 4 days ago and was checking my rootkit log and I found this. Can anybody give me clues on whether this is a major risk?

I followed only the standard install, so it's strange how I was infected so quickly?

Quote:[00:03:08] WARNING, found: /dev/.static (directory) /dev/.udev (directory) /dev/.initramfs (directory)

Checking `bindshell'... INFECTED (PORTS: 465)
Checking `lkm'... You have 1 process hidden for readdir command
You have 1 process hidden for ps command
chkproc: Warning: Possible LKM Trojan installed

Anybody can give their opinion on this?

We discuss this in the German Corner.
This is no Problem or Warning. SMTPS for Postfix is running on this Port 465 and it is OK. No one has a Problem with it - just RootKit Log.

Hmm so its a false alarm? That's a major relief to know. Thanks for the response BeNe!


RE: Rootkit Log - BeNe - 01-04-2008 06:16 PM

Yeah if you want so it is a false alarm!
If you do not use SMTPS - disable it in Postfix and this wrong Warning/Error is gone. That´s all. Wink

why isn't it 587? that's odd


RE: Rootkit Log - BeNe - 01-05-2008 04:47 AM

Port 587 is not secure / normal SMTP and 465 is SMTPS or not ?

SMTPS is 465, the so called "submit service" is on Port 587 and this is more and more used by providers to provide a "smtp with auth" for customers.
(Yeah, I know: smtp with auth is also possible on port 25 - I think the advantage could be: Port 587 is *only* for the own customers -> always and only with smtp auth, and port 25 (and 465???) is *only* for other mail servers -> no smtp auth but with all sort of spam/virus checks... (blacklists).

usually SMTP+TLS is on 587, not 465; port 25 is SMTP. AUTH is usually allowed at both ports, no discrimination neither on one nor the other


RE: Rootkit Log - joximu - 01-07-2008 04:28 AM

Ok thanks Raphael.
So, Port 465 is *only* used if you want to use SMTP with *SSL* (SMTPS)
And this is not (yet) very common (well, I use it on one server :-)
