RE: testing for IP address space leakage in NAT systems

[Joshua Wright <Joshua.Wright () jwu edu>]

IIS is famous for revealing internal IP addresses.  Here is a perl snippet I
have used to get information about the internal IP address from IIS 4.0 and
5.0 HTTPS servers using the sslcat CPAN tool:

#!/usr/bin/perl
# referrer-addr.pl
# Joshua.Wright () jwu edu
use strict;
use Net::SSLeay qw(sslcat);
my $server;
my @results;
my $reply;
my $i;
my $port = "443";
my $CRLF = "\x0d\x0a";

unless (@ARGV == 1) {
    print "$0 - Discover internal IP of IIS Server with malformed\n";
    print " GET request.\n";
    print "Usage: $0 host\n";
    exit 1;
}

($server) = @ARGV;
$reply = sslcat($server, $port, "GET / HTTP/1.0$CRLF$CRLF");
@results = split($CRLF,$reply);
while ($i < 8) {
    print "$results[$i]\n";
    $i++;
}
print "<snip>\n\n";
exit(0);


Umm, I am seeing silly things I did in this code already.  Live and learn;
use at your own risk.

The easiest way to do this is try a zone transfer (host -l abc.com).  If
the DNS servers are not set up correctly, you have a good shot at having a
list of the internal machines.  Also, sometimes if you traceroute to a
machine, you will get the internal IP of the gateway, which might be of
use.  SNMP might also be good to you and give you a few internal IP's, but
there is a very good chance that the firewall will block SNMP, but you
might get lucky.

I havn't heard of any specific tools to tast for leaks, and from what I
have seen in the past, the best method is to query the various network
servers which are known to give away network information.
