The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SQLckHide.exe and svchost.exe appear to be scanning external IP's for vunerable SQL servers, it also kills the adsl connection

Asked by adammaczka in MS SQL Server

Tags: sqlck_logfile

I have discovered a hidden program running on our SBS2000 server hidden in the

e:\recycler\S-1-5-21-1232352603-2125215062-1949299088 directory that has been killing our broadband

connection since 20:40 on 13/4/04. We have traced it to a svchost program that has somehow been

installed in this location,

e:\recycler\S-1-5-21-1232352603-2125215062-1949299088\temp\help\doc\bulletproof

Does anybody had this, or know of it. I have searched the usual google, yahoo, microsoft, symantec,

experts-xchange etc but no joy. This may just be because the file dates are 8/4/04 and it is too

new to appear.

The only way to see the files & folders is to change the view folder options.
A file, 500.bat contains the following lines:-
@ECHO OFF
SQLckHide svchost -i IP1.txt -u 1USER.dic -p 2PASS.dic -o Results.txt -t 60
EXIT

The IP1.txt contains approx 200 IP addresses

1USER.dic contains the SQL username of 'sa'

2PASS.dic contains the password dictionary, very comprehensive

And the output file Results.exe provides the matched IP address, username and SQL sa password

Another file SQLck_Logfile.txt contains all ip addresses, ports and connection results for all of

the attacked systems

The system has also created a new service call winlogon that calls the exe at

e:\recycler\S-1-5-21-1232352603-2125215062-1949299088\temp\help\doc\bulletproof\winlogo.exe

And the registry has been affected.

This has been added to our system within the last 7 days, although the server has not been

restarted for 11 days.

I have managed to remove the offending beast by changing the service to manual and restarting the

server.

I have a zip of all the offending files prior to deleting.
