Re: scanning from WANADOO-CABLE-BD

These are Server-farms used by an audiogalaxy application. Essentially, they
are trying to find writable ftp-servers on the net and trying to load
illegal mp3s on your servers if it is found to have anonymous ftp enabled.
It is an automated application.

Don't bother contacting the ISP. They are doing it intentionally, and will
ignore your mails.
Just block the whole domain.
And disable anonymous-ftp ofcourse.

Regards,
Abhi

My ftp server has been getting probed to see if it accepts anonymous
uploads
from ftp@.*wanadoo.fr.  Specifically:

  217.128.209.122
  80.13.216.42
  80.13.237.189
  217.128.235.25

It appears to be a script checking:

/images/:
/_private/:
/cgi-bin/:
/usr/:
/usr/incoming/:
/home/:
/public/:
/pub/incoming/:
/incoming/:
/_vti_pvt/:
/upload/:
/home/:
/temp/:
/wwwroot/:
/cgi-bin/:
/cgibin/:
/in/:
/_vti_cnf/:
/_vti_txt/:
/_vti_log/:
/anonymous/:
/outgoing/:
/tmp/:
/mailroot/:

/usr/:
/public/incoming/:
/anonymous/_vti_pvt/:

Hi,

Did others notice intensive scans from:
inetnum:      213.17.86.0 - 213.17.89.255
netname:      WANADOO-CABLE-BD
as well?

    Don't meddle in the affairs of sysadmins,
    for they are subtle and quick to anger.
