>SANS Flash Report: Trojans Sending More Data To Russia
>July 28, 2000, 6:20 pm, EDT
>
>This is preliminary information. The GIAC (Global Incident
>Analysis Center) has received several submissions showing large
>amounts of data being sent, illegitimately, from Windows 98
>machines to a Russian IP address (194.87.6.X). The cause is most
>probably a Trojan, but whatever it is, it is moving fast.
>
>What you should do?
>
>1. All sites should block network traffic from or to 194.87.6.X
>2. If you see outgoing traffic from one of your machines to that
>address, you should pull it from the network until anti-virus
>signatures are available.
>
>This activity has been going on for a few days, but the
>correlations are just coming in. If you have information to
>share, please send it to intrusion@sans.org.
>
>The remainder of this message is fairly technical and meant to
>help system administrators and firewall administrators protect
>their systems.

>Thank you!

>> This one came in at about 20:16 on July 26. The 194.87.6.201
>machine interestingly enough, resolves back to .ru. There is
>no other traffic to or from this network (194.87.6.X) for the
>last two months of live data that I have online. It's hard to
>make a guess on this one. Perhaps the machine that recorded
>this is on a proxy list somewhere, but then, this machine is a
>brand new honeypot on an IP address that hasn't been populated
>for at least 7 years, and has never been used as a proxy server.
>If this is just a random stab, it's interesting that there is
>no record of any network mapping from this network/host.
>Perhaps there was some coordinated mapping here, or perhaps
>there is someone out there who has mapped us already who was
>willing to share (or moved to a new network).
