Default RE: ipf not blocking? am i too paranoid?

Assuming you have two interfaces on your box and the ne0 interface is the
external facing interface....
Also, assuming you have not turned off the default allow policy which is
usually in place in the various kernels........
Your rules as they stand and based on the above assumptions are only
blocking certain IP ranges and not all traffic. You may have to add a block
in all and block out all rule to the front end of your rules to try to cover
off those things not covered by your quick rules.

Subject: ipf not blocking? am i too paranoid?


Hello I have a question about some strange traffic on an external
interface:

192.168.071.223 239.255.255.250 17 32768 1900 0 594 0 2
192.168.071.243 239.255.255.250 17 32768 1900 0 594 0 2
192.168.071.248 239.255.255.250 17 32768 1900 0 594 0 2
192.168.076.047 239.255.255.250 17 32768 1900 0 296 0 1

from ipaudit (the source nor the destination is ours). Is this legitimate
traffic? What kind of ports are those (32768 1900)? Anyway I have the
following ipf:

block in log quick on ne0 from 192.168.0.0/16 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 172.16.0.0/12 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 10.0.0.0/8 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 127.0.0.0/8 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 0.0.0.0/8 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 169.254.0.0/16 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 192.0.2.0/24 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 204.152.64.0/23 to any
block in log quick on ne0 from 224.0.0.0/3 to any

block out log quick on ne0 from 192.168.0.0/16 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 172.16.0.0/12 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 10.0.0.0/8 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 127.0.0.0/8 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 0.0.0.0/8 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 169.254.0.0/16 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 192.0.2.0/24 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 204.152.64.0/23 to any
block out log quick on ne0 from 224.0.0.0/3 to any

block in on ne0 from any to any head 100

And I have no "pass in (quick)" rules at all - so why is this traffic
passing?

The only out rules I have are for a bunch of standard ports, not the
above...

Also I'm getting the following every second or two from ipmon (so ipf IS
blocking them:)

16/11/2003 13:13:54.429224 ne0 @0:4 b 192.168.76.47,32768 ->
239.255.255.250,1900 PR udp len 20 282 IN
16/11/2003 13:14:14.606964 ne0 @0:4 b 192.168.71.248,32768 ->
239.255.255.250,1900 PR udp len 20 283 IN
16/11/2003 13:14:19.975369 ne0 @0:4 b 192.168.71.247,32768 ->
239.255.255.250,1900 PR udp len 20 283 IN

Is any of the above normal? Am I being too paranoid?

Thanks,

Amadeus
