I threw up a quick rule on snort to monitor probes on port 389 because I
have been seeing entries in /var/log/messages on some boxes that I am
responsible for. This morning we had a probe that hit 26205 different
IPs on that port in about 7 minutes (SYN scan only - no payload.) The
source IP was a mailserver in England. (They've been notified.)
Shortly afterwards we had a probe from one IP to one IP. The source IP
is a Sprint PCS address. The dest IP is one of our Win2k3 DCs.
I looked at the Internet Storm Center, and port 389 probes aren't
showing up there. I checked Securityfocus for any LDAP exploits, and
the most recent one is the Ipswitch LDAP daemon overflow. I checked for
Active Directory exploits and the most recent one is back in July of
last year.
