The New Zealand Network Operators' Group
by Donald Neal 31 Mar '09

31 Mar '09

The New Zealand Network Operators' Group Work is now nearing completion to establish the NZNOG Trust. The Trust is being set up to provide the legal framework needed to do jobs like operating the bank account which holds the money which allows our annual conferences to happen. NZNOG is intended to facilitate discussion among operators of networks in New Zealand on matters relevant to network operators as described in the list's Acceptable Use Policy. That policy appears later in this posting. Conference See http://2009.nznog.org/ for details of this year's conference. The plan is that next year's conference will be further south than Auckland. Discussions are now being held with prospective hosts, so if you have a burning desire to host New Zealand's only technical networking conference, now would be the time to speak up. Other Meetings See http://thursdaynightcurry.com/ if you live in or near Auckland or Wellington. Operators' Contact List See http://www.nznog.org/?page_id=6 for operational contact details for most New Zealand ISP's. These are intended for use by other network operators, not by most customers. Internet Exchanges See http://www.nzix.net/ for details of exchanges in operation. About This Mailing List This list has around 1000 addresses subscribed. You may only post to the list from a subscribed address. A number of people subscribe addresses which do not receive email purely to allow posting from them. You may choose to receive postings as they come in, or just to receive daily "digests". See the bottom of the page http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog/ to change the form in which you receive postings. The NZNOG mailing list is provided through a server at The University of Waikato, and is administered by employees of APN Online, Citylink, and The University of Waikato. None of these organisations, nor any administrator, is responsible for its content. NZNOG Mailing List Acceptable Use Policy The NZNOG mailing list exists to provide a forum for the exchange of technical information and the discussion of implementation issues that require cooperation among New Zealand network service providers. In order to continue to provide a useful forum for discussion of relevant technical issues, users of the list are asked to respect the following guidelines. 1. Discussion will focus on Internet operational and technical issues. 2. Discussion related to meetings of network service providers is appropriate. 3. Discussion unrelated to these topics is not appropriate. 4. Postings to multiple mailing lists are discouraged. 5. Postings that include foul language, character assassination, and lack of respect for other participants are unacceptable. 6. Blatant product or service marketing is unacceptable. 7. Postings of a political, philosophical or legal nature are discouraged. 8. Postings to the list should be in ASCII or MIME encoded as text/plain. Attachments should not be sent to the list. To present a document, a suitable URL may be referred to. For documents of general interest, the use of proprietary file formats is discouraged. 9. Breaches of list etiquette should be dealt with privately with the offending list user, and should not result in complaints being sent to the list. 10. A person repeatedly breaching list etiquette shall receive warnings from the list administrator. A further breach after the second such warning within thirty days shall result in the offender being unsubscribed from the list. Other action may also be taken to block postings to the list by the offender. Any such unsubscription is to be immediately announced to the list. Mailing List Archives A full archive is available at http://list.waikato.ac.nz/pipermail/nznog/ . Any message sent to the list will be archived and made available on the web automatically. Changes are not made to the archive on request, though the administrators remain happy to assist the Office of the Privacy Commissioner should any complaint be laid with that office. One way to search the archive is to use google and prefix your search with site:list.waikato.ac.nz . Subscribing to the List See http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog to subscribe.

QoS-IXPs
by Brian E Carpenter 30 Mar '09

30 Mar '09

On behalf of Thomas Knoll: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2009 02:02:42 +0100 (MET) From: Thomas M. Knoll <knoll(a)etit.tu-chemnitz.de> To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: QoS-IXPs Dear Sirs, excuse me please for bothering you with the following information, but I thought it could be of use for you as well. Background: I am currently proposing a class of service signalling extension to BGP in order to enhance the current best effort AS interconnection into a simple class-based interconnection. This primitive traffic separation scheme also encompasses lower layer QoS schemes in a consistent manner, which makes it attractive for QoS interested peering partners to meet on peering platforms with Ethernet QoS support. Therefore, I am trying to find out about Internet exchange points, which would a least transparently (untouched) transfer user priority bits across their platform and might even have 802.1p enqueueing and scheduling enabled on their switches. Having said that, I will point you to the current QoS capable IXP list on the web. http://www.bgp-qos.org/qos-ixp/ Furthermore, if you are interested to be recognized by QoS interested peering partners as potential peering platform, I would cordially invite you to register there as well. http://www.bgp-qos.org/qos-ixp/add.php Thank you in advance, Thomas Knoll

Good Evening, CCIP issued an alert on 8/01/2009 about the Conficker worm which attempts to exploit a previously patched stack buffer overflow vulnerability in Microsoft Windows Server Service (MS08-067). CCIP is issuing this update notice to warn organisations of this activity and to prevent further compromises from occurring. The latest variants of the Conficker worm include updates to its ability to communicate to itself and these changes are scheduled to activate on 1 April 2009, it is unknown what will happen on 1 April 2009. CCIP has been working with organisations nationally and with the international Conficker Working Group on this situation and would appreciate being informed of any outbreaks of Conficker or incidents relating to Conficker via incidents(a)ccip.govt.nz as this will assist in CCIP¹s ability to determine the impact of Conficker on New Zealand's networks and to coordinate any responses or flows of information. Further information about Conficker, including how to detect and remove it can be found on the Conficker Working Group website: http://www.confickerworkinggroup.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=ANY.GeneralAssistance Further infromation about MS08-067 can be found on Microsofts website: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS08-067.mspx Regards, Paul. -- Paul McKitrick Head of Stakeholder Engagement Centre for Critical Infrastructure Protection D: (+64) 4 498 7645 P: (+64) 4 498 7654 F: (+64) 4 498 7655 E: paul.mckitrick(a)ccip.govt.nz W: www.ccip.govt.nz --- This e-mail contains official New Zealand Government information, which is intended for the use of addressees only.

NZRR Route Registry Update
by NZRR Database Notifications 26 Mar '09

26 Mar '09

Dear Colleague, This is to notify you that one or more objects in which you are designated for notification have been modified in the NZRR routing registry database. These objects are used to configure the various NZIX route servers (http://nzix.net/) so you can expect the relevant servers to be reloaded in the near future. The reloading of the servers is staggered over a period of time so that if you are peering with both servers at an exchange, you can maintain at least one BGP session at all times and consequently a full set of routes.

Re: [nznog] VF / Ihug issues with Cisco ADSL Routers

Thanks for everyone's quick replies. The trick with the 877 was to add "ip tcp adjust-mss 1400" onto the LAN interface and everything started working just like it should. Does anyone have any thoughts about the appropriate segment size to use for traffic in NZ that goes over DSL like this? Thanks again, Terry ##################################################################################### This e-mail message has been scanned for Viruses and Content and cleared by MailMarshal #####################################################################################

Linksys + Netgear Worm
by Philip D'Ath 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

Oh joy, a worm is now out that infects Linksys and NetGear DSL routers. http://blogs.zdnet.com/BTL/?p=15197 'Psyb0t' worm infects Linksys, Netgear home routers, modems More information has surfaced about the botnet “psyb0t,” the first known to be capable of directly infecting home routers and cable/DSL modems. It was first observed infecting a Netcomm NB5 modem/router in Australia. Members of the website DroneBL, a real-time IP tracker that scans for and botnets and vulnerable machines, came to the conclusion that the “psyb0t” (or “Network Bluepill”) botnet was a test run to prove the technology. After the botnet’s discovery and public outing, the botnet operator swiftly shut it down, APC reports. [Read more: Stealthy router-based botnet worm squirming] However, the most recently discovered generation (dubbed ‘version 18′ in the code) targets a wide range of devices, and contains the shellcode for over 30 different Linksys models, 10 Netgear models, and 15 other models of cable and DSL modems, APC reports. It did not specify which models. APC: A list of 6000 usernames and 13,000 passwords were also included, to be used for brute force entry to Telnet and SSH logins which are open to the LAN and sometimes even the public WAN side of the routers. Generally, routers do not lock a user out after a number of incorrect password attempts, making brute force attacks possible. According to DroneBL, any router that uses a MIPS processor and runs the Linux Mipsel operating system (a simple operating system for MIPS Processors) is vulnerable if they have the router administration interface, or sshd/telnetd in a DMZ, with weak username/passwords. DroneBL noted this includes devices flashed with the open-source firmwares openwrt and dd-wrt, and the group also said that other routers may be vulnerable, as it had observed the bot running on routers based on the Vxworks operating system. Clearly, exploiting a home network ? which are growing in popularity ? has its benefits: they rarely power down, and a router attack enables hackers to exploit a network with greater levels of stealth, since there’s no affect on individual PCs on the network, APC writes. In fact, the staff of DroneBL wrote that the exploit is very difficult to detect, and the only way to discover it is to monitor traffic going in and out of the router itself ?beyond the reach of desktop computer software. In the past, exploits on professional-grade Cisco routers were easier to detect, as Cisco provides dedicated ports for connecting to the router, monitoring internal performance and configuring them. However, the vast majority of home routers sacrifice these features for the sake of cost savings. DroneBL says that the botnet is capable of scanning for vulnerable PHPMyAdmin and MySQL installations, and can also disable access to the control interfaces of a router, (meaning a factory reset is necessary to clear the worm). DroneBL was successful in shutting down the Command & Control channel that the botnet utilized, and the DNS that was hosted with afraid.org was also nullrouted. The Command & Control channel is now defunct, but at the height of its penetration, the botnet was suspected to control 100,000 hosts. Worse, the author of the botnet claimed to have infected 80,000 routers at one point while chatting anonymously on an IRC channel. WHAT DEVICES ARE AFFECTED According to Drone BL: We don’t know. There are so many devices out there that we could not possibly know. Your best bet would be to take action to upgrade the device firmware and secure any passwords if there is concern that the device may be vulnerable. Such actions will help to avoid exploitation by the worm. WHAT TO DO According to DroneBL: Ports 22, 23 and 80 are blocked as part of the infection process (but NOT as part of the rootkit itself, running the rootkit itself will not alter your iptables configuration). If these ports are blocked, you should perform a hard reset on your device, change the administrative passwords, and update to the latest firmware. These steps will remove the rootkit and ensure that your device is not reinfected.
