I really think that people give way too much importance to firewalls, specially stateless ones, blocking ports isn't going to do much for you unless you are trying to hide vulnerable services behind it. They used the extension 1000 to make the calls so I would say: activate log-auth-failures on your profile, setup a fail2ban and get stronger passwords. If you want to go further you can use a stateful firewall limiting connections and setup a IDS(recommend snort) On Sep 26, 2012 8:29 PM, "Todd Bailey" <toddb@toddbailey.net> wrote:
Hey All,
I just got an email from Frontier that there were several attempts to make international calls.
I checked the log file and verified that somehow someone was able to get access to FS from the internet.
here is a sample of the log

At this point I'm at a loss how this is happening as I have multiple firewalls in place that limit port access.
Can someone provide a few pointers on how to better secure FS running on Linux systems?
thanks
