Port 135 excess of traffic, XP SP1 updated
« on: July 23, 2004, 09:18:08 AM »
I got an eccess of port 135 traffic on my XP SP1 box with latest update applyed.
I have the latest avast! and grisoft antivirus and latest pestpatrol and spybot search and destroy. No infection is detected.

I had to stop 135 tcp traffic using an advanced rule on my sygate firewall. When the rule is disable the box starts to connect other IPs on the net.
I also tryed to sniff the connections.

Anyone else detected this situation?

Port 135 is used by DCE endpoint resolution as well as msblast. www.sysinternals.com has a utility that can show you what file/application is using what. See if that can tell you what is using the port.

Both Tcpview and Fport report that port 135 emap is used by
C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe
command line
C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost -k rpcss
version
5.01.2600.0000

Nevertheless, as soon as i remove the port 135 block rule on my firewall,
i notice dozens of connections from my pc to the outside world.

Any suggestion ? can i monitor and report something else?
Thank you in advance

Same webiste as earlier, also has a util that tells exactly what is using svchost, I think it is called prcview (not sure). use it to find out more.

Hi,

are these Port-135 INBOUND or OUTBOUND connections ?

if Inbound, it's just Blaster or something knocking on your door..

This is from someone who goes online via interbusiness.it and connects from somewhere near catanzaro/italy ?

This mean anything to you ?

Here's the analysis:
http://www.hijackthis.de/logfiles/108999d9d27d67799d3d94be1fe7690e.html

read carefully

you have PGPnet & WinVNC (a RemoteAccessTool = RAT) running, is this known to you ? could be the cause for the connections..

It is near the area where im located.
And yes i know i have PGPnet and VNC. I use them both since a long time (5 years or so).
Neither  avast, nor avg nor online scanner trendmicro's housecall are able to detect an infection. I will use another scanner and read your report.

If someone else has any suggestion.
You are welcome

In that list of connections I see portnumbers that are not in the IANA port list, that makes me always supicious towards them. See if you can find out what  is using the unknow port numbers
