How Secure is ROL's high speed network? How Secure is your Data?

A boring week with nothing much to do or to celebrate, I connected a RF splitter to the J-SAT cable at our home to split the CATV cable and connected a cable modem. The cable did not lock as the power was way too low due to the splittings. We had another cable from MESCO which doesn’t have any splits. So I just split that into two and then connected the cable modem. Bingo, my modem signal is locked. Before I go any further let me try to give you all some info about the type of VPNs ROL uses now.

ROL is running on PPTP-VPNs now! What is a PPTP-VPN?

PPTP VPNs offer legacy authentication mechanisms such as PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP, and MS-CHAPv2, with the strongest being MS-CHAPv2. MS-CHAPv2 is also used in Cisco’s LEAP and EAP-FAST phase-0. MS-CHAPv2 can be broken using the ASLEAP cracking tool for Linux and Windows. A tutorial exploiting the weakness of PPTP-VPN with Asleap and Auditor can be found here

PPTP tunnels use an IP connection to form an encrypted tunnel for data transport. The tunnel has its own IP subnet (in the case of ROL, 202.21.*.*), and after the tunnel is formed between client and server, a static route is entered into both hosts so that all future data traffic is sent through the tunnel. However, the original IP subnet (in the case of ROL on jsat cable, 10.99.*.*) on the Hybrid Fibre Coax (HFC) network can still be used for data transfer, such as port scanners and other hacking tools. The high-speed connectivity over the HFC network not only makes it quicker, easier and cheaper for customers to get the service but also enables Whackers (black hat hackers) to enjoy a number of open ports and services that are in the pipeline. Without a personal firewall in place, the client and server devices are still open to IP attacks.

PPTP uses Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption, which uses the RC4 stream cipher. While MPPE-128 is a reasonably strong encryption scheme, it’s the authentication mechanism (MS-CHAPv2) that makes PPTP weak.

Connecting to ROL HFC Network:

Then I connected an Ethernet cable between my laptop and the modem and got an IP from the 10.99. range (original IP subnet). Fired up Nmap to see if there are any open ports and found some machines with port 80 open, ran Firefox and connected to one of those machines. Firefox brought me to a web page of some sort of web server called WAMPP with access to a MySQL database. I was even able to create my own databases without any authentications. Could this be a machine of an individual user? Could this be a machine of ROL? I leave it for the readers to do their own research and find out for themselves. (Hint: There are other interesting ports too!)

Before turning my mind to other interesting ports. I got stumbled into ROL’s Subscriber Management Software which runs on IP 202.21.176.234 externally and IP 192.168.50.1 internally. They run really interesting software called Log2Space from Spacecom Technologies Limited, India. Those of you who are interested in learning how this software works could see a demo of it on the Spacecom website. Click here for a demo.


Did some further scanning and ran a couple of tools by pressing keys and buttons here and there and I couldn’t even believe my eyes on where I end up. Where was I walking into wearing the dark black court? In fact I was in a position to map the whole network with more than 20 different segments and was also in a position to throw off individual users or a whole bunch of users from the network by pressing a couple of buttons. For those of you who are interested in the logical design of the ROL network may download this Visio network map of ROL.

For a second I thought, is this the security we talk about? Is this the industry standards and practices that ROL follows as required of an ISP (Internet Service Provider)?

A word to the tech team at ROL: Don’t mislead your Managing Director in to thinking that you have the best security that is up to the industry standards. Humans do make mistakes. Humans learn by their mistakes. So admit your mistakes to your boss, get the issues resolved internally or externally and then learn from that experience rather than trying to hide the facts and mislead your own boss. If you mislead him, he will unknowingly mislead the general public.

Some of us might think that we need a rocket scientist who has a law degree to perform such a task but in reality somebody who has a little bit of networking knowledge with a few network tools could perform such a task in a few minutes.

well i would leave that as a question. As you say its the standered. How cable modems work. you use those protocols. And every network has their own designs. Its easy to point out faults, but its hard to fix and design. Anyway my point here is, what ever said, so far no one has been able to hack into the network and bring it down or do any damage. Maybe the free internet thingy! well i know for a fact that it was a known fact to ROL even b4 it was published. as for the tech team they are there; cos they are good. service is up cos they know how to. but then again you can always fight and say stuff.. which is good too. they need people like you (aham! even for entertainment)

First of all go to this link, http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html where you will find the following excerpt:

'XAMPP is an easy to install Apache distribution containing MySQL, PHP and Perl.'

So, WAMPP is an easier XAMPP (http://www.netresources.co.uk/2005/09/wampp-your-xammp.html), which does not happen to be a standalone web server, but rather an easier tool with which to install Apache!

Secondly, obviously any cable network has the shortcoming of sporting a single physical collision domain (hence promisuous interfaces). This is the ONLY reason why it's easy for you to sniff passwords over that collision domain. This is also the reason why they have opted to go with VPNs, thus safeguarding their customers. Furthermore, they will also implement an authentication mechanism on the application layer as well, eventually.

That their network infrastructure has not been complete should be the question. That they have not been fined, or even kicked out of the business, should be the question. Not that you are able to sniff the passwords. Sniffing the passwords of PAP, CHAP, LEAP and variants over promiscuous connections is a thing of decades back. That you are just coming to grips with this sort of technology is the real question.

persona non grata, i agree with you. technical issues aside there are other questions that linger on, atleast for myself.

Wataniya was fined recently by the government for being "late" in delivering their services. Focus, on the otherhand has been exceeded over two years and still delivers crippled services where events such as customers being kicke off are a norm.

I wonder what political strings were pulled to keep them from being fined. As far as the documents on TAM (www.tam.gov.mv) say, Focus was given a year to deploy their services in the country. Did they achieve that? Have they achieved that even now?

btw, asoa. thanks for the article. ;)

seems like an ip + service is very interesting to you boys. focus's dns is 202.21.176.33 with ports 53 open running bind and they have proxy servers at 202.21.176.34 running squid and email server 202.21.176.36 running sendmail and they have routers at 202.21.176.1 running cisco ios haha. asoa. have a look. i do not get the point of your article other than bashing that you discovered something abot logspace which isnt a corporate secret anyway. digital squid boys are learning :) keep up!

grr! ey anonymous i agree. thank asoa for trying to teach people log2space and showing a demo. but people, it woud be MUCH better to learn about apache or bind or sendmail or squid or linux or cisco, and it wud do u some good too. you don't just see a demo on a website you can actually download the darn thing and run on your computer (u can even have the SAME configuration as ROL running on ur PC) and i suggest u all choose wikepedia, they have expert articles on chap and pptp and all this which seems to be new to this end of the planet. sorry to say, u dont wanna leave anyone half full do u... its sad i know
thank you and regards (luv and kisses)

ooops. looks like asoa left me a message so i should reply:

okay, you see we know how ip networks work. very very much more than you do. the private network is intentional, the vpn is intentional, it is there for a reason, which you all will see later on.

meanwhile, i discovered that throwing bricks at glass windows causes them to be wide open.

ps. for some reason, asoa, i know that there is someone you hate very much working in ROL tech support. but please, this ain't factmaldives is it? when you write such directed comments it ruins the reputation this blog has earned. try to stop it.

:)

again. with love and kisses and season's wishes.

so why wait. do it. i am sure you would if u could. talking about it is easy as i said before. doing it is a different story. prove your points. insted of talking abt stuff like vpn and dns, bla bla. anyone can google and paste.. big deal?

what ever is said and told; i feel dhiraagu and focus got the cream of the IT in the country. proof is they are doing it and at that position cos they are capable. if not you and I will be doing the work, or some golhaaboa will be doing it. We can alway say stuff and comment. but making something is not always easy as it sounds. its not like click, click, next ,next and finish job! and wala you have a network. No dude! you got to know more then how to google and post stuff at a blog. hard to digest but true. again! you can always fight agiant this.

primary0, I guess you would be knowing that I was shouting at ROL's crappy service even before I knew the guy you mentioned existed.

Being relatives and being very close friends for sometime, I guess you would know me better than most of the people in here. I don't mix my personal and professional life. Some of you might but I don't.

The fact is simple. ROL sux. Why was Fatty & Squid posting articles in this blog about ROL? Are they having some personal grudges with you or someone else? I guess not.

My point in here is to raise the issues so you guys can fix it rather than denying there is any problems.

persona non grata, when we have issues from the stone ages then we have to refer to the books of those ages. It could even be Thauraath or Injeel. LOL

 
At 14 January, 2006, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Asoa. what is the issue? a guy with a database with no password is not ROL's problem. Open ports on customer's PC is not ROL's problem. Them visible to you means open unrestricted service, it is not an issue, that is how service provider's give service, ROL does not do firewalling for all customers, no ISP does that. The other ROL posts showed a weakness, they fixed, and that weakness did not harm ROL nor did it harm any customer. So asoa. What is the issue you are addressing primary0?

ROL, Dhiraagu got to hire Asoa and form a R&D team to enhance their netwrok interms of availablity, security, Oh Sorry I know nothing all you name it. Take Microsoft and Cisco as an example. They have highly qualified engineers highered for finding bugs and security wholes. Asoa is doing a good job. Be possitive. Higher him pay him to encourage what he is doing.
Sincerely yours but not too customer service oriented.

 
At 14 January, 2006, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Asoa, for the opening speach you gave, We all know the best security measure is to disconnect our PCs from any network or to make it better even keep it switched off. and talking about the things you could not believe on your eyes,is it the service provider problem or is it a problem of clients???? its a question we should ask on our own "are we ready to connect to a PUBLIC network? are our computers been protected? are we running only the services we need?" fe more like this maybe. I use an ROL cable connetion but my PC is not exposed. I also see others shared hard drive and bla bla. But what I know is it is not shared by ROL, it is shared by individual users.

We need to educated endusers I believe. you can do good business on this by offering a proper network configuration at user ends.

Hope I did not go beyond your thinking

 
At 15 January, 2006, Blogger asoa said...

Yeah Sofi, it is often said that the only secure computer is an unplugged one. The fact that you could persuade someone to plug it in and switch it on means that even powered down computers are vulnerable. (Social Engineering)

I wouldn't definitely say that my pc or network which is connected to the ROL cable is not exposed. There are far better guys than me here who knows IP networks and VPNs. Any of them could expose my machine. My pc or network getting exposed is not a problem of ROL. It's mine. Me the newbie wouldn't definitely bet against all the pros in here.

Look at the article or the situation from a different point of view, you may probably then realise whether the problem lies within ROL or with ROL clients.

 
At 15 January, 2006, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Asoa, I would still say ROL if thre is a security whole in ROL it will be there netwrrok that you can heck not the public network. I have kept the "PUBLIC" in caps in my earlier post as the word itself had a meaning. All roads are open, there are one ways and two ways. Those roads are public roads. But houses are locked to avoid thiefs and intruders comming in.

Try to understand my point. The highly skilled people here if they want to help ROL fix issues on their network as you mentioned go get in to their network, we all know the IP addresses of the servers that they are running various services and most of them are running open source software.

I am a retired falk from ROL I have no love to them, but what i know is this particular open argument does not have anything to do ROL security.

Probably you have not tried the simple network access method \\x.x.x.x for accessing other publicly connected computers on internet to see if they are exposed.

So I suggest we take a real problem with ROL and dicuss on that like you did in your earlier post on ROL Free internet.

For sure there are lot of constructive comments we an made towards their service like one of my colleagues has said in a previous comment that their customer service which sux and in which they are far behind with their competitor.

 
At 15 January, 2006, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Those who think their network is secure and safe are the ignorent ones. good network administrators try to hack into their network.praise those who find falt and try to fix it rather than firing back with fireballs.

i can sense something is wrong and im not sure what. as a end user all i know is FOCUSinforcom can do better than this.they should be more customer oriented and they can provice a better service than this.

Who ever is this anonymous, I salute you. you are right. what you sense from my post my intention is not to prove they have a perfect network thats why I stressed that the experts got to crack ROL netwrok instead scaning for open ports of poor end users.

and interms of Focus Infocom's customer service you are very right. it sux, should they consider improving it, they can do better.

i dont know why you are all blabbering about the same thing, i dont know who you are and i dont care, but what i know is FOCUS infocom has more cons than pros and it is really effecting us. i have gone through this blog and found out so many things which i did not know and myself being a rol user im sad to see these kind of problems from my isp. so i give credit to who ever is writing all this stuff because i find it really informative

What is the real problem?
how secure is ROL's High speed netwrok? as far as I know ROL highspeed network is the service network component of their's in other words their NOC. They ustilize Mesco and Jsat Cable network and their own WiFi and Ripwave Wirless system for distribution. Both Jsat and Mesco's HFC networks are based on Star-Ring toplology as per my knowledge which causes to expose all the machines which are connected to this single broadcast domain with netbios and other unnecessary protocols and services enable on them. Most of the machines I have seen are with its default share on and with no Administrative passwords set on those machines.ROL would not have any control of these though they could advise and educate their customers on this while reducing conjestion/ unneccessary traffic on these service networks.

So far no body was able to hack the ROL service Network, like ppl did to Dhiraagu proxy and mail servers and some sites hosted with Dhiraagu.So I must conclude that ROL service network is yet secure and trustworthy interms of subscribing for e-mail service and web hosting.
How Secure is your data? As I have explained in the first part of this post, The distribution network that ROL ueses are public networks and when an end user connects his machine to a public network it is the endusers responsibility to secure his/her data if they are critical to them.This problem will not only be within ROL, if Mesco or JSat starts another service such as gaming, video streaming where by endusers use a PC to access this same issue will remain same until they protect their PCs from exposing.

Well in this case I would know mine! so far no reports or no clues that any one had got access to my data :P

My Response to Dean - Manager Infrastructure, Wataniya Telecom

What is the real problem?

But Sticker:There isnt any problem at all.

how secure is ROL's High speed netwrok?

But Sticker: ROL wired-wireless is not secure at all

As far as I know ROL highspeed network is the service network component of their's in other words their NOC.

But Sticker: What are you trying to say? What does this mean? Has ROL got a Highspeed Network? Is it an Imangination?

They ustilize Mesco and Jsat Cable network and their own WiFi and Ripwave Wirless system for distribution.

But Sticker: who are they?

Both Jsat and Mesco's HFC networks are based on Star-Ring toplology as per my knowledge which causes to expose all the machines which are connected to this single broadcast domain with netbios and other unnecessary protocols and services enable on them. Like the star-bus topology, if a single computer fails, it will not affect the rest of the network. By using token passing, each computer in a star-ring topology has an equal chance of communicating. This allows for greater network traffic between segments than in a star-bus topology.

But Sticker: Its understood to any one, who has a little knowledge on Netorking!! the above definition for Star-Ring toplology can easily be found on www.google.com

Most of the machines I have seen are with its default share on and with no Administrative passwords set on those machines.ROL would not have any control of these though they could advise and educate their customers on this while reducing conjestion/ unneccessary traffic on these service networks.

But Sticker: Who is responsible for securing the customer?

So far no body was able to hack the ROL service Network, like ppl did to Dhiraagu proxy and mail servers and some sites hosted with Dhiraagu

But Sticker: FYI, Dhiraagu Proxy wasnt hacked.but i do agree with you the fact that few mail servers were hacked while they were doin a major upgrade on their Network and FYI, those servers were not behind any firewall when hacked!!!

So I must conclude that ROL service network is yet secure and trustworthy interms of subscribing for e-mail service and web hosting

But Sticker: seems like you are more confident than ppl at NASA

How Secure is your data?

But Sticker:How Secure is Your Data?

As I have explained in the first part of this post, The distribution network that ROL ueses are public networks and when an end user connects his machine to a public network it is the endusers responsibility to secure his/her data if they are critical to them.

This problem will not only be within ROL, if Mesco or JSat starts another service such as gaming, video streaming where by endusers use a PC to access this same issue will remain same until they protect their PCs from exposing.

But Sticker:ROL, MESCO, JSAT are partners and why cant you people come out with a solution?

Well in this case I would know mine! so far no reports or no clues that any one had got access to my data :P

But Sticker: Of All men's miseries the bitterest is this: to know so much and to have control over nothing!! As you have stated in your earlier post, probably your PC is not hooked to any network!! MY DICK!! its been said by Manager Infrastructure , Wataniya Telecoms.

Dean, pls dont bring CCNA stuffs here .. they are just kiddish stuffs for real world networking environment (kiddish but you failed)..you probably seen -- breakin a network into multiple collission and single broadcast domain...this theory cant be applied to every where!! if you break a network into multiple broadcast domains - its becoms an independent network - pls dont talks about protocols and topologies by hearing ppl talking about it. first digest it well use it, then talk about it.

Its obvious that ROL. JSAT, MESCO a Standardized Network nor the Designers (The Cream of Tuna) followed the basic and simple methodologies like modularization and layering of it!!

I still say no body were able to hack my PC :D. I am not any better person than most of the people who are posting here and probably I will be in the lowest catogory. There will never be a day I could open my mouth and say I am better than PH as he is the man who first has given me an opportunity to become who I am today. and Sigey been his mate for long I am sure sigey will be far better than me. and BTW I no nothing on coding. I studied for CCNA and set the exam the week I finish my ICND course and never set the exam after that and what ever the document I got is now of no value coz it was some 4 Years back.
Since I knew ppl here are of same level or better than me I did not put any definitions of the terms I used.
About DOSBE' I respect him and I agree that he is one of the best IT persons in Maldives. If anyone ask me who are the ppl good in IT in maldives the second name always that comes is dosbe'.

ROL sux. as thats why this fatasoa is on his peak.i have been trying to download itunes lastnight and it took me 2hrs like for it. the speed was 5kbps at max. In here the issue is not regarding the postman neither Pizza delivery guy. this is regarding the service which ROL is providing. its like a home network to them whenever they want they down it. I'm using 2packages for my both the homes. which is a family connection and a home package of 64kbps. As Jaa said Wataniya was fined and ROL still under its way and will take more than 2years i guess. What i feel is give the network to us we will configure it much better than you guys with security and all what it needs we wil feed. also thanks for the NAVINI device for its service and thanks for the cable modem for its security.

You cant really make it as good as you dream. Not easy.

First, government spies who feeds on it, sleeps on it comes here! and comments about COMPUTER SECURITY while he is a mere post man.

As for you, you got a lot of free time to write and manage this with the help of those spies. certainly asoa is one who characterizes others as uneducated barbarians.

your blog, certainly is not of use with such perverts. and these comments continue...are you one of those who can control the technology? ever thought, its double edged?

great asoa, great stuff. who doesnt know anything about security. but at the same time pretends to know everything.

remember fella, the person who knows everything knows nothing at all.

also, are you scared and embarassed because i wrote something about asoa?
how could you maintain a blog while you yourself is scared and shrugs off from the truth? come to the real world

squid, i even told fatty not to remove that. if so they will think we are inferior and make it a personal issue. (but i do respect your opionion of removing it as it has no relation to ROL's security)

Fact is ROL sux and they are trying to make it a personal issue. Whether its personal or professional if ROL doesnt sux then they can prove it technically.

hey fatty why'dja remove my comment....c'mon u know it..all these so called techies r jus big time slackers...

watever the techies and other ppl may be, personally and professionaly they deserve to be respected...(just my opinion) the issues here arnt personal and neither should comments...

i don't think it help any discussion here by talkin abt someones personal issues or problems.. and this isnt a gossip column is it?... and even if some of the sad 'facts' are true.. i find it irrelavant on how it relates to the topic at hand.. most of the time the corporate workings as a whole are more responsible for the problems and other concerns than the techies or other individuals some ppl like to point fingers at..

if we don't remove such comments this is gonna turn into place where ppl bashing takes precedence over the actual issues that we want to inform about, discuss, and overall understand. then where do we end up anyway?

hope you understand what we are trying to do here..

regards,

fatty
