I’ve recently dug into my firewall logs and the most traffic I seem to receive from internet is targeting port 3389.
While I could just blacklist the source IPs and call it a day, I would like to actually listen on this port and “trap” them in a fake RDP connection.
There are tools like endlessh, and I’ve found that you can do the same for http by sending an endless stream of headers. I would like to do the same for RDP, and before I start digging into the whole spec, I was wondering if there is already something similar for RDP.
Is anyone aware of that ? Is that even a thing ?
You’re looking for a honeypot Be careful with installing something like that with docker(or anything), docker is very unsafe
Docker is not very unsafe at all. Although something like podman would be better.
It’s not as safe as people expect it to be either. Container breakouts are very much a thing and not necessarily relegated to those that did something stupid in configurations
Yeah that was my question. I never mentioned docker though ?
Only thing that comes to mind is https://github.com/citronneur/rdpy
Is there a linuxserver.io but for infosec?
No idea, I like to build/make my own.
That’s more of a framework for RDP right ?
you can use iptables tarpit target. it works on the transport layer so it should work with any application layer protocol.
I didn’t know there was a tarpit target for iptables, that’s neat. Unfortunately I run OpenBSD and pf so I can’t use it, but I’ll look into how it works to see if I can replicate it in my setup. Thanks !
