New Security Script

Red Squirrel · Post by **Red Squirrel** » Sun May 11, 2003 10:08 pm

I just programmed and installed a security script (yeah, that's why there was a little message saying so along with php errors

) so just to let you all know.

This won't stop all trolls, but should stop quite a few. I'll work on the scada system later, this will make monitoring even more easy.

Improving security is something I always like to do. While I was doing all this, I also spotted a guest using a proxy, but I can't make out what port it's on. So I left him just in case it's not malicious. I don't want to over do security either.

Hi! Sorry if I took you as a troll. We've been having problems lately. It's quite sad, as you might of seen someone started a site against me. I'm not Bill Gates status yet! Glad you decided to join us, have fun. This is kind of OT but it's ok.

Everytime a page here is loaded, it has my php script included and it logs certain stuff like google referrers etc.... just for my own info to know how people get here etc... but that same script also now checks files for specific algorithms that I've created and if it matches with the current user info of the surfer, it bites. I will not release these "algorithms" however, it's simple stuff for now, but I might make it more complex later on. If I make it too complicated it may slow things down as the script runs each time most pages are loaded! This one does not auto block like my Reliexec RPHPSS one I had made though, it was too much trouble. I kept blocking myself all the time when I typed the wrong password!

Oh, and the SCADA system... that will be fun. I can view exactly when and why the script bites. From there I block the IPs from the site.

yep php rocks! For data storage I find files are better then sql, but that's your choice. Of course, when I design an entire shopping cart system for ebay I might decide to use some kind of database.

Oh, and yes, those firewall alerts were probably me.

I was just doing a tracert to see if it matched with any of our recent trolls which it did not, but then I saw a router with the word proxy in one of the subdomains and wondered and started checking things out.

Found nothing so I guess it was just AOL's funny router name that made me wonder too much. It's funny since I told myself while doing the port scan "if it's not a troll he'll probably wonder if it's my site..."

Squirrel = too curious = will get hurt one day.

Nah, you should see me with electrical, I'm more curious when it comes to that.

I still need to try that grape trick in the microwave though, never got around to trying it. Plenty of grapes in the fridge as I speek...

Just in case someone is curious to know what happends when the script "bites".

Without mentioning the server-side stuff, here's what happends to the client:

hehe I'm so happy! I just finished my scada system which will alert me on a easy to view screen of activity I should know. By editing a file it will be easy to add alarm points, and for more different alarms points I need to do a bit of coding in the specific file (ex: someone signs up under a blacklisted IP) and then I use this code I got in a template and it "sends" an alarm to the scada system.

I was testing it out and it will be so great!

I have this passion for internet security.

I just love working with it.
