bind (named) compromised?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I'm having problems where my upstream bandwidth is being saturated. I've 
narrowed it down to a DNS issue of some type. If I stop the named 
service then my bandwidth drops to "normal" according to my untangle 
firewall.

I'm running bind-9.3.6-20.P1.el5_8.6.

I'm seeing the following in /var/log/messages:
2014-02-08T23:03:09.558315-05:00 mailserver named[3497]: network 
unreachable resolving 'hccforums.nl/ANY/IN': 2a00:1188:5::212#53

I've tried changing the following in /etc/named.conf but it doesn't seem 
to have any affect so I commented them back out.
tcp-clients 1000;
recursive-clients 10000;

I also see a chroot directory, but if I grep for named it doesn't appear 
to be using the chroot(?):
# ps aux | grep named
named     3497  0.4  0.7 170088 15836 ?        Ssl  23:02   0:02 
/usr/sbin/named -u named
root      3763  0.0  0.0  61192   764 pts/1    S+   23:13   0:00 grep named

I've also tried adding the following to iptables, but it also seems to 
have no affect:
iptables --insert INPUT -p udp --dport 53 -m string --from 40 --to 56 
--algo bm --hex-string '|09686363666f72756d73026e6c0000ff|' -j DROP -m 
comment --comment "DROP DNS Q hccforums.nl"

Any suggestions or troubleshooting advice?

Much appreciated.
James
