This talk: what sort of interesting and valuable
information can we find in the Internet s trash? 4
About me
•  I studied Internet
trash for the last 4 years of my PhD
•  Before grad school: wrote intrusion detection software
5
Outline
•  What is Internet trash? •  How can we collect trash? •  Data for this presentation
•  Interesting and valuable items found in trash •  Conclusion
6
What is Internet trash? •  Unsolicited packets
•  Passively captured
•  Also called Internet Background Radiation (IBR)
7
Traffic: Scanning
•  Searching for hosts that run a service
8
Traffic: Backscatter
• Host responds to forged packets

Traffic: Spoofed

different source
From: 2.2.2.2

Traffic: Unknown
•  Traffic produced for an unknown purpose
•  TCP SYN to non-standard port
•  Encrypted UDP packets
•  UDP with unknown payload

How can we collect trash? 15
How to collect unsolicited traffic
•  Honeypots: Setting up machines that are purposefully infected with malware
1.0.0.0
16
How to collect unsolicited traffic
•  One-way traffic: Record any packet without a response
1.0.0.0
1.0.0.4

1.0.0.33
1.0.0.97 1.0.0.133 1.0.0.208

Any without response
Write packet to storage

How to collect unsolicited traffic
•  Greynet: Record traffic destined to any unused IP address

How to collect unsolicited traffic
•  Covering prefix: Record any packet destined to an unused subnet

How to collect unsolicited traffic
•  Network telescope: Announce unused addresses and record all traffic

We use network telescopes to easily study
macroscopic behaviors
Pros:
Honeynet
Scalability
Ease of implementation
One-way traffic
Fewer privacy concerns
Greynet
Cons:
Lack of in-depth details
Covering prefix
Avoidability

Data used in this presentation
22
Our method of obtaining trash : Network
telescopes
•  Multiple large (academic) network telescopes
•  Currently capturing ~5TB compressed pcap per week
•  Historical: traffic since 2008
Scanning,
misconfigured,
buggy or under
attack host
23
IBR is pervasive: We observe traffic from many
diverse sources
•  Removed spoofed traffic. Method: [CCR 13]

Interesting and valuable items found in Internet
trash 26
Network telescopes capture a wealth of securityrelated data
•  Scanning: Trends and relation to vulnerability announcements
•  Backscatter: Attacks on authoritative name servers
•  Misconfigurations: BitTorrent index poisoning attacks
•  Bugs: Byte order bug in security software
•  Unknown: Encryption vs. obfuscation

28
Methodology
•  Used Bro s parameters: IP is considered a scanner if it sends:
•  Packets to 25 different network telescope IP addresses
•  Same protocol/port
•  Within 5 minutes
•  Results depend on size of network telescope
•  Doesn t capture super stealthy scanners (e.g., [Dainotti et al. IMC 12])
29
Scanning: 2008-2012
•  Conficker dominates

How do we know which packets originate from
Conficker?
•  Bug in PRNG: primarily targets IP addresses {A.B.C.D | B <128 & D < 128}
•  Developed heuristic to identify sources randomly scanning with
this bug Missing data

BitTorrent: Temporal aspect
•  Unclear why fewer /24 blocks are observed
•  But pausing attack is a possible explanation

BitTorrent: Spatial aspect
•  /24 blocks sending BitTorrent KRPC packets are more likely to be observed by
certain destination IPs and ports
•  get_peers and find_node packets: certain IP addresses more
likely to be targeted : {X.B.C.D| B & 0x88 = 0x00 and D & 0x09 = 0x01}
•  A bug in PRNG for generating IP addresses is a plausible explanation

July 2015: Huge increase in BitTorrent traffic
•  Graph: BitTorrent KRPC packets
•  Increase is caused by traffic destined to 1 IP => traffic from over 3.7M /24s
per month
•  Still going on... not sure of all the details yet
55
Investigating July 2015 increase in BitTorrent IBR
•  Installed two BitTorrent clients on one machine (uTorrent,
Deluged)
•  Just joined DHT didn t download any torrents
•  ~2.5 months: Nov. 15 2015 - Jan. 28 2016
•  uTorrent: 12 IPs sent 112 packets to a network telescope IP
•  Deluged: 51 IPs send 64 packets to a network telescope IP
•  Who directed us to network telescope?
•  LibTorrent most popular client, but not used exclusively
•  China most popular geolocation, but not exclusively
56
Suspicious BitTorrent behavior
•  Most IDs associated with network telescope IP have their
third byte equal to 0x04
•  Other IP address in response packets occur frequently and
have third-byte quirks
Sample node IDs
Other IP Packets 3rd byte

Scale of misconfiguration
•  Like BitTorrent, Sality can have bogus information in its hash table that results
in many sources sending us packets
•  34 days in 2012: 386k IPs
•  34 days in 2013: 355k IPs
•  Symantec 2011: ~300k infections
