    <title>How MSRPC flow is handled? How to delete the flows after successful transfer of data</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.firewalls.wizards/9093</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi All,

I am trying to get details about MSRPC and its working. So far I have come
to know that when a Client requests for a particular service, first it
comes to End Point Mapper. Then in response to Map Request, the Port and IP
address are sent to client in Response's Tower id 4 and 5 respectively. Now
I have the port and IP address.  I simply connect to that service. Now
suppose I am firewalling it. Now if I allowed the MSRPC packets, then I
will create an embryonic flow for that connection, and then the firewall
will allow those packets.

Now my problem is how I will detect for how long I need to keep that flow
open? If the communication on that port has finished, then how should I
make sure that now its exited and I need to delete the flow ID? Can anyone
help me how should I go for this or how is this actually implemented??

Thanks and Regards
Rahul Sharma

    <title>Securing email by inhibiting urls</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.firewalls.wizards/9075</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;A company I work for has been having great difficulty in securing against
email attacks.  So far we have disabled access to webmail, implemented
rules and processes to block freemail services like hotmail etc until the
sender registers the address and of course a spam filter (BrightMail).
Attachment filtering is pretty strict as well.

 

The threat that presents the biggest challenge is url links in emails.  The
common method of attack is an email from somedomain.com where they change
one character or otherwise make the address look valid (ie:
joe&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;s0medomain.com or j0e&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;somedomain.com etc).

 

I was looking for a way to spot and block hyperlinks but it looks like the
only option I have is to filter on these and send them to a spam bin.  I'd
rather yank the offending hyperlink and replace it with a message of some
sort.  Unfortunately BrightMail doesn't offer that capability.

 

Any products that do this or ideas on a solution?

 

Thanks

There is plenty of other stuff defined in RFCs and I wonder if anyone really uses it so

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I was surprised to find it is!

It is now called HAL-GK (Hybrid Application Layer Gatekeeper) and being developed by Edenwall
(there appears to be a commercial appliance based on it and NuFW).

I checked the sources, but it looks like most interesting parts are missing -- no SQL and Netbios proxies anymore.
Does anyone still have old NSM source tarball? I cannot find it.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Has anyone had any experience with these? My company was using
SnapGears and since McAfee stopped making them, we had to switch.
Anybody else have any other good makes and models that they use?

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;
in the context of the never ending debates related to software/hardware firewalls...


i was looking inside of our newest 5580,   it appears to be a standard HP server box (DL585)  with a hardware encryption accelerator option card inserted into a pci slot.  everything else appears to be verbatim to what you would receive from HP if you ordered their high end x86 server box.

should one not have any sort of encryption needs,  would this box considered a software firewall?    I couldn't find one custom asic,  module  or other chip with a cisco brand stamp on it,  beyond the flash.


thanks!

what is most interesting in tools like that is 

a) similar functionality is rarely integrated in firewalls, despite the fact it is most obvious place for deployment.
firewall vendors show little to no interest, though
b) tool vendors are likely to avoid the word "firewall"
c) there is zillion of it for various protocols and scenarios and no one ever thinks on making uniform solution of those

Hello,

What do you do to keep your firewall rules clean and up-to-date?
Procedures, for which?

Keep in mind;

-Servers that change from IP
-Server which has been discarded
etc.

Thanks in advance

    <title>Proxies,opensource and the general market: what's wrong with us?</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.firewalls.wizards/8981</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;In early days, proxy firewalls and opensource (or just "crystal box" :-) solutions dominated the market.

Now both are either extinct or forced to an ulgy low end (for opensource, it usually means having no
security-centric framework, no common API, no real code review -- just a bunch of "functionally fit"
free things installed on a linux box with some simple web interface). For proxy firewalls the future is
even more questionable. Multiple state-of-the-art technology leaders were merging (quite obviously being
unable to stay competitive with cheapo crap) until there was only One left.. SC, later bought by McAfee.
And now McAfee is owned by Intel and it seems to show no interest in high end firewall solutions at all,
they seem to think they just bought an "antivirus company".

I asked guys on LinkedIn (having to admit LinkedIn security community sucks big time, some sane people are still there :-)
, if they still have some interest in opensource firewall solutions. The short answer
was "NO". The long ones were:

    <title>Query: Role of Firewalls within a SAN environment itselfnot just the periphery</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.firewalls.wizards/8972</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi all,

I am wondering what your view point is with respect to firewalls within a
Storage Area Network (SAN) environment.

I am a SAN novice and I am interested in getting to know this area further.

The literature that I have found since yesterday does not seem to have major
role for a firewall within the SAN environment itself. I see that some
documentation places a firewall a the edge of the SAN. But what about
firewalls between switches/routers etc within the SAN?

As I understand it, SAN switches like those from Cisco (just reading
documentation on Cisco 9000 series switches) provide IP/port filtering of
packets and can create VLAN-like SAN's called VSAN's.

The thing is, would it not also be wise to install firewalls either
network-based or locally on end SAN systems to provide defense in depth and
also provide greater filtering granularity if required?


Has anyone any documentation or diagrams of a typical SAN architecture that
also include (traditional non-switch based) firewalls?

These switches maybe managed over telnet and ssh ports etc. And I presume a
firewall in conjunction with a switch's own access controls would provide
additional security in restricting who (administrator IP address) can
communicate with the switch over such ports.

Similarly, there maybe a requirement for DPI or stateful inspection of some
packets/communications for whatever reason. A firewall such as Linux
iptables (is what I am familiar with) can provide this level of fine-grained
access control on behalf of the switches where the switches don't appear to
have this level of granularity.

I also notice, that the Cisco 9000 series switches only allow a maximum of
250 IP filter rules. I have not read up on other technologies yet, but this
may or may not be the normal limit for filtering at a switch level.

I also notice that the SAN switches seem capable of filtering/firewall at
the layers 3 and 4 of the TCP/IP stack! I always presumed that switches
operated at layer 2 (MAC addresses). So, this is interesting for me to have
learnt.

So basically, I want to discover what your opinions are with respect to the
role of firewalls (be that packet filters, SPI and/or DPI) within the SAN
network itself. [I presume IDS has a role also]

[I know that it is considered best practice that firewalls be placed upfront
in the traditional way: at the gateway/Internet, in between the DMZ and
application servers network and in between the application server tier and
the SAN at the back-end.

many thanks,
Brian.

    <title>PIX 515 7.1 vs: 8.0</title>
    <link>http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.firewalls.wizards/8962</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I was recently able to pick up another pix to play with. I currently
have a PIX 515e with 7.1, but this new one comes with 8.0. I'm
wondering if there is something new in the 8.0 version that is working
differently and has me stumped. One difference between the two PIXs I
have is that the new one has a 4 port card for a total of 6 ethernet
ports. I've setup DHCPD on two of the interfaces, but I can't get it
to assign an address to anything connected to those interfaces (dmz
and vonage). Also, if I manually assign an IP to a device on one of
those networks I can't even get out the internet. So, either some ACL
or static mapping is interfering there, but I can't see what I've
messed up. The DMZ port on the PIX 515e with 7.1 just works both with
DHCPD and internet access, but even if I try the same ACLs and statics
on the 8.0 PIX I"m still not getting anything working. Basically I'm
stumped.

I've attached the 8.0 config below. If anyone can give me a hand and
let me know what I'm missing that would be great.

Thanks for your help.

Brian

    <title>Final Penultimate last Call for Papers for CanSecWest 2011(deadline Jan. 17th, conf March 9-11)</title>

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, 
then they fight you, then you win." -- Mahatma Ghandi.

Well if Fox's new comedy show "Breaking In" is any
indication, infosec has now entered Ghandi's second 
stage. http://goo.gl/ZpLDp [youtube] (hat tip to Adam 
O'Donnell for this humorous find, and Sam Bowne for 
the quote/quip)

But on a slightly more serious note.

CanSecWest is nearing in the second week of March, and 
this year I've waited on sending out the CFP note/reminder. 
It's been up on the site for a while with a Dec 29 deadline, 
but this is the real last call for submissions. If you don't get 
them in by this weekend they won't make the selections 
review process next week. We'll try to announce the 
selections the week following. After 11 years, most 
of you should know the drill, but for those who haven't 
submitted or attended before, the fine print and usual 
further information is attached below.

Other info:

We are doing more dojo training courses  than ever this 
year (17!) and they will be up for registration next week. 
I've also confirmed with Aaron/TippingPoint/HP that we 
will again be holding PWN2OWN with both browser and 
mobile targets, so stand by for some announcements 
there. There will also be some other new experiments 
and conference goings on, some fascinating keynotes 
that have been invited, as well as some interesting new 
sponsors exhibiting new security wares that you'll see 
announced on the conference site in the coming weeks, 
but for now, get your talk proposals in so that our grumpy, 
cynical, and battle-scarred reviewers can complain about 
them, err, I mean provide informative feedback.;-)

The usual CFP boilerplate info:

Call For Papers

   The CanSecWest 2011 CFP is now open.

   Deadline is January 17th, 2011.

CanSecWest CALL FOR PAPERS

   VANCOUVER, Canada -- The twelfth annual CanSecWest applied technical
   security conference - where the eminent figures in the international
   security industry will get together share best practices and
   technology - will be held in downtown Vancouver at the the Sheraton
   Wall Centre on March 9-11, 2011. The most significant new discoveries
   about computer network hack attacks and defenses, commercial security
   solutions, and pragmatic real world security experience will be
   presented in a series of informative tutorials.

   The CanSecWest meeting provides international researchers a relaxed,
   comfortable environment to learn from informative tutorials on key
   developments in security technology, and to collaborate and socialize
   with their peers in one of the world's most scenic cities - a short
   drive away from one of North America's top skiing areas.

   The CanSecWest conference will also feature the availability of the
   Security Masters Dojo expert network security sensei instructors, and
   their advanced, and intermediate, hands-on training courses -
   featuring small class sizes and practical application exercises to
   maximize information transfer.

   We would like to announce the opportunity to submit papers, and/or
   lightning talk proposals for selection by the CanSecWest technical
   review committee. This year we will be doing one hour talks, and some
   shorter talk sessions.

   Please make your paper proposal submissions before January 17th,
   2011.

   Some invited papers have been confirmed, but a limited number of
   speaking slots are still available. The conference is responsible for
   travel and accommodations for the speakers. If you have a proposal for
   a tutorial session then please make your submission  by emailing a 
   synopsis of the material and your biography, papers and, speaking
   background to secwest11&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;cansecwest.com . Only slides will be needed 
   for the March paper deadline, full text does not have to be submitted - but
   will be accepted if available. This year we will be opening  CanSecWest 
   presentation guidelines to include talks not in English (particularly
   Chinese and Korean) which we will offer to translate for the speaker 
   if you are not a native English speaker. 
 
   The CanSecWest 2011 conference consists of tutorials on technical
   details about current issues, innovative techniques and best practices
   in the information security realm. The audiences are a multi-national
   mix of professionals involved on a daily basis with security work:
   security product vendors, programmers, security officers, and network
   administrators. We give preference to technical details and new
   education for a technical audience.

   The conference itself is a single track series of presentations in a
   lecture theater environment. The presentations offer speakers the
   opportunity to showcase on-going research and collaborate with peers
   while educating and highlighting advancements in security products and
   techniques. The focus is on innovation, tutorials, and education
   instead of product pitches. Some commercial content is tolerated, but
   it needs to be backed up by a technical presenter - either giving a
   valuable tutorial and best practices instruction or detailing
   significant new technology in the products.

   Paper proposals should consist of the following information:
    1. Presenter, and geographical location (country of origin/passport)
       and contact info (e-mail, postal address, phone, fax).
    2. Employer and/or affiliations.
    3. Brief biography, list of publications and papers.
    4. Any significant presentation and educational
       experience/background.
    5. Topic synopsis, Proposed paper title, and a one paragraph
       description.
    6. Reason why this material is innovative or significant or an
       important tutorial.
    7. Optionally, any samples of prepared material or outlines ready.
    8. Will you have full text available or only slides?
    9. Language of preference for submission.
   10. Please list any other publications or conferences where this
       material has been or will be published/submitted.

   Please include the plain text version of this information in your
   email as well as any file, pdf, sxw, ppt, or html attachments.

   Please forward the above information to secwest11&amp;lt; at &amp;gt;cansecwest.com
   to be considered for placement on the speaker roster, or have your
   lightning talk scheduled. If you contact anyone else at our

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Is anyone doing anything interesting with v6 and firewalls?  We're              
supposedly coming up on the year that v6 will break out, and most               
organizations I know still don't even route it.
