hotel internet connectivity provider portscans port 6000

  • From: Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino
  • Date: Tue Sep 03 11:29:15 2002

	inter-touch.com (an internet connectivity provider for hotels in
	australia, it seems) portscans customer device.
	this is way too weird, and the repsonse from them does not make any
	sense.  i'm not sure if it is widely practiced, i really hope not.
	(the most stupid choice of port number!)

	i'm now staying at Stamford hotel near Sydney airport, and using
	your internet connectivity service.  the first-hop router (61.8.9.254)
	is sending malicious TCP traffic (SYN attempt to port 6000).
	could you let me know (1) if it is intentional or not, and (2) if
	intentional, let me know under what kind of ground you are portscanning
	your customer.
	if you do not respond in 24 hours, i'll make this matter public.

	evidence.  notice that all of the exchanges follow this pattern:
	- SYN from first-hop router
	- SYN ACK from my device to respond to SYN
	- retransmission of SYN ACK
	- first-hop router's connecting socket goes away
	apparently your device is attempt to portscan, it is not a normal TCP
	connection attempt.

	note that tcp port 6000 is used for X11.  any UNIX user will consider
	this traffic malicious.
