Όσοι από εσάς κάνετε mirror binaries κλπ από το kernel.org κάντε τα ένα verify με τα hashes τους, υπάρχει περίπτωση να έχουν γίνει και αυτά compromised, γενικώς έχετε το νου σας. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: J.H. <warthog9 [ at ] kernel [ dot ] org> Date: 2011/8/29 Subject: [kernel.org users] [KORG] Master back-end break-in To: users [ at ] kernel [ dot ] org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Afternoon Everyone, As you can guess from the subject line, I've not had what many would consider a "good" day. Earlier today discovered a trojan existing on HPA's personal colo machine, as well as hera. Upon some investigation there are a couple of kernel.org boxes, specifically hera and odin1, with potential pre-cursors on demeter2, zeus1 and zeus2, that have been hit by this. As it stands right now, HPA is working on cleaning his box, and I'm working on hera (odin1 and zeus1 are out of rotation still for other reasons), mainly so that if one of us finds something of interest, we can deal with it and compare notes on the other box. Points of interest: - - Break-in seems to have initially occurred no later than August 12th - - Files belonging to ssh (openssh, openssh-server and openssh-clients) were modified and running live. These have been uninstalled and removed, all processes were killed and known good copies were reinstalled. That said all users may wish to consider taking this opportunity to change their passwords and update ssh keys (particularly if you had an ssh private key on hera). This seems to have occurred on or around August 19th. - - A trojan startup file was added to rc3.d - - User interactions were logged, as well as some exploit code. We have retained this for now. - - Trojan initially discovered due to the Xnest /dev/mem error message w/o Xnest installed; have been seen on other systems. It is unclear if systems that exhibit this message are susceptible, compromised or not. If you see this, and you don't have Xnest installed, please investigate. - - It *appears* that 3.1-rc2 might have blocked the exploit injector, we don't know if this is intentional or a side affect of another bugfix or change. - - System is being verified from backups, signatures, etc. As of right now things look correct, however we may take the system down soon to do a full reinstall and for more invasive checking. - - As a precaution a number of packages have been removed from the system, if something was removed that you were using please let us know so we can put it back. - - At this time we do not know the vector that was used to get into the systems, but the attackers had gained root access level privileges. That's what we know right now, some of the recent instabilities may have been caused by these intrusions, and we are looking into everything. If you are on the box, keep an eye out, and if you see something please let us know immediately. Beyond that, verify your git trees and make sure things are correct. - - John 'Warthog9' Hawley Chief Kernel.org Administrator -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk5a5U0ACgkQ/E3kyWU9dif+1ACfYPlgq/keFrFO77AmQVduKGwx TAcAnRAu6nHt74+5aC+fPeb8aT0hcy2K =Semd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users [ at ] linux [ dot ] kernel [ dot ] org http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/users -- GPG ID: 0xD21DB2DB As you read this post global entropy rises.
