About: Port 137 Begining 28/09/2002 I am receiving in my dynamic IP about 10 to 20 daily intrussion alerts from my firewall about this port (FWIN). Most of them (90%) came from other dynamic IP's given by my same ISP "RETENET" to other of their customers (62.174.0.0 - 62.174.127.255). I have told to <abuse@retevision.es> and <techretenet@retevision.es> twice, but they never answered my messages. Can I do anything mone to avoid this problem ?. Can you give me any additional information of this subject out of: http://isc.incidents.org/port_details.html?port=137 ?. Thanks. Antonio.

You'll see a lot of these if you're running VMWare, usually from your subnet to the subnet vmware is using.

SANS Top-20 Entry: W5 Windows Remote Access Services http://isc.sans.org/top20.html#w5 NETBIOS -- Unprotected Windows Networking Shares Microsoft Windows provides a host machine with the ability to share files or folders across a network with other hosts through Windows network shares. The underlying mechanism of this feature is the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol, or the Common Internet File System (CIFS). These protocols permit a host to manipulate remote files just as if they were local. Although this is a powerful and useful feature of Windows, improper configuration of network shares may expose critical system files or may provide a mechanism for a nefarious user or program to take full control of the host. One of the ways in which I-Worm.Klez.a-h (Klez Family) worm, Sircam virus (see CERT Advisory 2001-22) and Nimda worm (see CERT Advisory 2001-26) spread so rapidly in 2001 was by discovering unprotected network shares and placing copies of themselves in them. Many computer owners unknowingly open their systems to hackers when they try to improve convenience for co-workers and outside researchers by making their drives readable and writeable by network users. But when care is taken to ensure proper configuration of network shares, the risks of compromise can be adequately mitigated.

This traffic is only 'normal' when the source and destination ports match and also, generally, when the source IP is on your own subnet. If the source port is not 137, e.g. 1024+n, there is likely a Wintel box at the other end infected with a worm. The prime candidate appears to be 'SCRSVR.EXE', AKA 'Opaserv', see: http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_99729.htm There also still appears to be some risk when the source *is* 137, see: http://www.sans.org/newlook/resources/IDFAQ/port_137.htm For the morbidly curious... more Opaserv info: http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.opaserv.worm.html http://www.sophos.com/virusinfo/analyses/w32opaserva.html http://www3.ca.com/virusinfo/Virus.asp?ID=13234 http://www.europe.f-secure.com/v-descs/opasoft.shtml http://www.kav.ch/avpve/worms/win32/opasoft.stm http://www.norman.no/virus_info/w32_opaserv_a.shtml http://www.trendmicro.com/vinfo/virusencyclo/default5.asp?VName=WORM_OPASERV.A

UDP packets on port 137 are used to perfom a Netbios name lookup. Within Microsoft's Windows file sharing, these lookups are similar to DNS in that they resolve an IP to a computer name and back. While many of these lookups are harmless and may be performed automatically if DNS or reverse DNS fails, they are also a first step to enumerate and maybe exploit open file shares. There are a number of viruses and worms that exploit open shares, most notably Bugbear. Also, a number of IRC controlled 'bots' spread using open file shares. Important: ALWAYS use a password to protect shared resources. However, Microsoft file sharing is intented for a closed LAN environment, and if at all possible should not be used accross the public Internet.
