Firewall UDP ? Attack !! Or Normal ?

I don't mean a human.

Totally agree with you, the only problem is because from so many different IPs?

Guys, I bring you a new update, about the case...

During the weekend I am not in the office and I usually have some alerts that help me monitor the service remotely.

Well, this alert appears during Saturday morning.

Today I go back to the office, and when I check my wan (it doesn't work) for some reason it's as if my isp has disconnected me completely. (I already sent the report to my isp and they are evaluating the situation)

but this confirms once again that something is not right in that wan.

Huh? Causality vs. correlation. Because you seem to have strange traffic and now your ISP supposedly has cut you off that confirms anything? That's no troubleshooting or debugging, that is pure guessing and crystal ball reading

I'd check my ISP first to confirm that sth. was amiss on my line and that's why they disconnected me. Could also be just a faulty uplink, problem with the ISP itself etc. etc. All other things are just guesses and no evidence there's something not right on your WAN.

@bingo600 @bmeeks @Gertjan @JeGr @johnpoz @SteveITS Updates:

Another ip range and another port equal to udp directed to my wan.

I don't want to hear the obvious, I ignore this kind of traffic alright, but what I'm looking for is to come to a conclusion, what are they trying to do?

If anyone has anything, I'm open to hearing.

@silence well 2096 is NBX-DIR, what that is used for - not sure.. cpanel something most likely from the info given here

https://www.speedguide.net/port.php?port=2096

@silence

Ok fair...
So now where are is the rulset and what services r u providing behind your firewall

@noplan but........

The traffic's being..............blocked?

johnpoz

@silence what is the dest port? That is source port 2096? For all we know your generating the traffic and not allowing the answer?

I first read it as that was your IP and port.. But your hiding what port they are going to?

This post is deleted!

@johnpoz

without knowning what services he is providing behind his firewall to his clients I think we are not able to help him out, especially minding the early posts and informations (VPN inherit IP and traffic and on and on )

the next step for him will be to set up surricata and monitor this inbound WAN traffic on UDP against every avail list for the IDS/IPS system

@deanfourie yes I know that he blocked that UDP Traffic,
but he @Silence never told us what services he is providing behind his firewall so maybe this is traffic is what his clients are requesting but he is blocking (think about 200 clients as he told, so a lot of nasty stuff can happen)

until there he provides us with more info lets sing all together ...

Hey guys I'm back today again (tried to use this service and I keep getting weird traffic this time the port is 1987/UDP

and the range of ips are different from the view above...

As I see this port could be a Trojan.

It's just my router (I don't have any services behind it)

destination port were random at that time.

noplan

@silence

have you checked you LAN ?

found this after 2 sec of looking ...

i checked some of your source IPs ...
for me with lack of coffee at the moment those sources looking like random chatter on the wire
the wired thing is they are trying to get to dest port 1987 ...
so you have to look into it

everything else is guessing

yes, all sure.

@silence

So let's wrap it up

There is no attack
Get rid of that stupid rule
Mark the topic as solved
And be aware that none of your clients is going to sue you for faulty security consulting

There is no attack

Excellent, I'll mark the issue as resolved, at the end I was informed the office is offline due to ransomware.

In short, if I had something pointing to my wan trying to achieve this, and in the end I achieved it in one way or another. But hey, none of this doesn't matter.

NOTE: Never see massive noise as normal noise

@silence

So there was something fishy (ransomware as you mentioned) on your LAN behind your pfS
