Ok, The Internet Firewall is a strange beast when you find one. It is for those
|
||
of you who don't know, a system that secures off a part of the net for pricate
|
||
or more interestingly for government use. You'll find things like the FBI,CIA
|
||
etc.. all on the other side of a firewall of some desciption. My research to
|
||
date has mainly been into the firewall that the FBI has, as that was the very
|
||
first such address I got.
|
||
|
||
I was hanging around the IRC on csdvax at nsw uni and a friend happened to
|
||
mention the address just as he logged off... it was pbi.fbi.gov, so i being the
|
||
good little hacker that i am had a pen beside me and wrote it down to look into
|
||
later on. Unfortunately this friend of mine is in Israel and was just leaving
|
||
when he gave it to me so i didn't have time to ask him anything about it.
|
||
|
||
l8r on i tried the address and found it came back with 'network unreachable'.
|
||
I found this odd as he had given me the address that he obviously had connected
|
||
to himself so i was wondering what the fuck was going on right? I got onto irc
|
||
and asked a dude in #hack about it. He said the FBI has a firewall and then he
|
||
went all quiet and wouldn't say another bloody word about it. Now just about
|
||
everyone knows that irc is logged. If you say anything like 'hack' 'hacked'
|
||
'password' 'passwd' etc.. the line of text gets written into a log.. and i mean
|
||
who wouldn't log it? i would too so u can't blame them. Anyhow i bugged this guy
|
||
'til he finally said 'get onto 'talk' and phne me' so i did, i phoned his
|
||
account and said 'ok what's the story' and he gave me the following.
|
||
|
||
Apparently the FBI,CIA,IRS and other such secure conscious departments all have
|
||
computers with ip set up so they only have to sit there and make sure that the
|
||
rest of their small network is secure, they are called 'firewalls' and are easy
|
||
to hack if u know wot u are doing. apparently on unix machines there is an ftp
|
||
command called 'dig' if u login to anonymous ftp sites u can get the binary file
|
||
off them. if you dig certain addresses that you know to be behind a firewall
|
||
you can find information about the site. it gives you teh address of all such
|
||
sites with a certain name in it such as
|
||
|
||
dig fbi.gov any any
|
||
|
||
this will give you output like this

|

|
||
(this looks a mess as it was buffered from irc with someone who had a unix in
|
||
front of them and did this for me).
|
||
|
||
Basically you can see from here where the other nodes are that incorporate
|
||
fbi.gov.
|
||
|
||
Recently I have also found that UTS actually switches packets through to the FBI
|
||
firewall to be allowed or denied access. This brings me to the second use for
|
||
the FBI firewall. It seems that at times they DO want people from outside the
|
||
wall to be able to access their computers. And to do this they have set up a
|
||
file with addresses that are allowed to access the computers behind the wall.
|
||
Now by logging UTS with one of the various logging programs I'd say that these
|
||
nodes could be easily found, as the programs (the good ones) log where the
|
||
connections are made from and to and the login id and password of course.
|
||
|
||
The only problem with this is that I have found UTS to be one of the most secure
|
||
universities on the network in sydney. However nothing is impossible and UTS is
|
||
certainly not hack proof.
|
||
|
||
The most interesting feature of the Wall is it's CPU power. I am wondering what
|
||
it could do with a good unix version of Killer Cracker running on it! ;)
|
||
Imagine 'Hacker Caught running Password Hacking programs on FBI's security
|
||
Computer' hahaha nice... anyhow the idea is NOT to get caught. ;)
|
||
|
||
Anyhow down here I will list a few interesting nodes down for your testing.
|
||
ARD.FBI.GOV - FBI's Firewall computer.
|
||
PBI.FBI.GOV - Unknown FBI node behind firewall.
|
||
ULTIMA.SOCS.UTS.OZ.AU - UTS SunOS.
|
||
csdvax.csd.unsw.edu.au - UNSW's vax for students mainly.
|
||
hydra.maths.unsw.edu.au - UNSW's math unix system.
|
||
dslt4a.faceng.su.oz.au - Sydney Uni's Faculty Enginerring Computer.(easy)
|
||
IRS.GOV - The IRS of course. ;)
|
||
I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the cia was CIA.GOV or something stupid
|
||
like that so I might try it when I get back on the net.
