Got it, came from nanog, originated from DISA (purportedly, anyways): Received: from 198.26.130.36 by by13fd.bay13.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Wed, 17 Mar 2004 21:10:38 GMT #whois 198.26.130.36 OrgName: The Defense Information Systems Agency OrgID: DISA Address: DISA/DSSO/JCLCC Address: Room BF655A, The Pentagon City: Washington StateProv: DC PostalCode: 20301 Country: US NetRange: 198.25.0.0 - 198.26.255.255 CIDR: 198.25.0.0/16, 198.26.0.0/16 NetName: NETBLK-DISA-C NetHandle: NET-198-25-0-0-1 Parent: NET-198-0-0-0-0 NetType: Direct Allocation NameServer: AAA-KELLY.NIPR.MIL NameServer: AAA-VAIHINGEN.NIPR.MIL NameServer: AAA-WHEELER.NIPR.MIL NameServer: AAA-VIENNA.NIPR.MIL I *think* I loaded the page in lynx before it got rate-limited, and lynx flashed through a whole mess of fast redirects before faulting out. No logs, unfortunately. Just a question: is this the chinese year of the immature script kiddie or something? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of william(at)elan.net Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2004 5:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Strange message possibly through nanog mail server I Just received this. I would like to check if others have received it and did it indeed come through nanog mailist: > Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 21:10:38 +0000 > From: Deep Throat <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: Spamhaus Exposed > > Disturbing information on one of the founders of Spamhaus.org > > http://www.geocities.com/jackjack9872004/ _______________________________________________________________________ And while the website was unavailable and the sender is being anonymous (whichis against nanog list policies if this was sent through it), what I do find worse is that they managed to do it so that [email protected] is not added to "CC" (which if I understood is always supposed to happen when something through this mail list, which makes me think it might have come through merit mail machine but not actually though mail list). What I find even more disturbing is that ip address listed as origin (which may well have been forged if they managed to gain some highier level access to merit servers) is that of US Military. Below is the header for your review. I do however find it slightly more likely that its some kind of sophisticated joe-job on spamhaus and that info is forged but they may have used some bug on merit mail software.
