major problem with eggdrop / crontab maybe

chadi · Sep 25, 2004

I am not sure what this is here but I've been getting these emails constantly, about 3-4 every ten minutes. Copies of the emails are below:

For the record, I've checked all background process killers in WHM, checked "prevent nobody from sending emails...", enabled open_basedir, enabled mod_userdir, disabled compilers tweak, enabled suexec. What else can I do here to stop whatever this nonsense is?

StevenC · Sep 25, 2004

Well it looks like you were exploited.

cd /usr/local/apache/domlogs
grep wget *

chadi · Sep 25, 2004

What exactly should I do?

AbeFroman · Sep 25, 2004

Type
uname -r
netstat -lntp

Paste the results here.

Also, download, install, and run RootKit Hunter.

It looks like you have a RootKit installed. Make sure you have a backup of everything. You may have to reinstall the OS but you can probably save it.

You can email me directly at abe__froman@hotmail.com for help.

Thanks, now do

You can get rootkit hunter here:

It looks like they have eggdrop or something running on port 6693 claiming to be send mail

It will tell him what script was exploited if he was exploited by a php script. Besides you tried to feed him some garbage when you know nothing about security execpt a few bits of info people have given you. It also appears you ignored my post. You cannot be become a security expert in 11 days. Also in order for you to be come a security expert you must be an expert in linux:

Doesnt appear you are a expert....that is general linux knowledge.

Try netstat again, is that port open again?

Not if it was exploited using anything other than wget, nor if it was exploit before the logs were rotated.

chadi · Sep 26, 2004

What am I supposed to be looking for exactly? I ran netstats and it showed about 100+ lines of info, some "timed wait" and others "established".

WHat should I show you?

I am not a security expert.. However i have used eggdrops for years.

The eggdrop is not loading up so it is sending an email saying it could not load its config file in which case it dies. When it does load it is attempting to open port 9999 for remote telnet connections by user.

Here are some of the files an eggie normally uses, try searching for them specifically:

autobotchk
*.user
*.chan
pid.botname
assoc.so
console.so
server.so
uptime.so
blowfish.so
ctcp.so
irc.so
share.so
wire.so
channels.so
dns.so
notes.so
stats.so
woobie.so
compress.so
filesys.so
seen.so
transfer.so

directories :

filesys
modules

One last quick question...

Where are the emails coming from? Are they actually coming from your server or has someone put your email address in their config file in which case all your doing is getting notices.... but nothing has been installed on your server. It would be a little strange to root someones box and then have any error emails sent to the email addresses on the rooted box..

chadi · Sep 26, 2004

Thank you for your response but what exactly should I do with the files now?

I basically want to end the notifications and just whatever cronjobs related.
