I see a lot of attempts by hackers to call 00972595301123​ or 011972595115207​ or variations but that same 972595 is often present.


Can someone break down that dial string with an explanation? The 011 look like an overseas call (from Americas), while the 972595XXXXXX is unclear...

Hi

The 11 bit is them thinking there's some prefix which will cause your PBX to become an open relay. The number (97259) is a Palestine Mobile number. These's a lot of hacking attempts coming from Palestine and this type of number probably has some revenue generation properties to it.


Regards


Ish

The number is not important i think.

You need to block those country's you never use to connect to your asterisk system.


I bet this call is made from palestine/israel too.

Best regards.

It’s an international call to +972595XXXXXX, tried with the 00, 001 and no prefix What is confusing?

If this is to 972 area code then the next digits should be 0X or 0XX but they are not. This differs from what I found documented for that area code - I thought someone from the region might add to the discussion. Not sure if this reflected a premium service etc. (But someone jumped in with an explanation)



I'm guessing you have nothing to add to the discussion?

I never mentioned the 972 area code. It’s a country code - and as others have said it’s been mapped to a Palestinian mobile network. I’ve added this to my bar list - I’ve seen quite a lot of toll fraud to Palestine (and the middle east in general in recent months). If you’re referring to country code, then the 0 of the local number is dropped when dialled internationally, see:

0X or 0XX is only if you're in country and need to dial with the 0
national trunk code (much like dialing 1+ in the US for an in country
but long distance call). Someone dialing from outside the country
doesn't need to add the zero, so they just use the 972 country code + 59
prefix.

You never dial the local trunk prefix when you're calling
internationally.

Italy is the only exception where dialing from outside the country requires the leading 0, but that is because the leading 0 isn't used as a trunk prefix

The ITU provides copies of each country's dialing plan for free at http://www.itu.int/oth/T0202.aspx?parent=T0202#A

I have an iptables file which blocks all traffic except traffic from networks allocated by ARIN or are Legacy networks. I pulled the information from http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space/ipv4-address-space.xhtml

My iptables script can be found at the link below.

http://help.nyigc.net/tmp/iptables_geoblock

It might be helpful to someone.

Those lame hacking attempts aren't the big issue - unless you have an insecure SIP-PBX. Germany just got hit with a wave of hacks of Fritz!Box home routers with integrated SIP, causing hundreds of thousands in damage.
The big issue is that the ISPs worldwide don't give a crap about complaints! And that's not only some backwater-ISPs in some 3rd world countries! It's mainly the big names, like Hetzner, L3, etc. who - oh well, yeah - send you an autoreply but in the end don't bother doing anything.
Just recently was an article, again in a German IT-newsticker, about Hetzner's "abuse handling". They just forward the complaint to their customer, including full contact data - which is pretty much illegal (privacy protection, etc.) - but they don't follow up.

I got so fed up that I now put the top 20 of attacking IPs to my website...

Current top 5:
1. iWeb (Canada)
2. Level 3 (USA)
3. Dacom (S-Korea)
4. Intergenia (Germany)
5. OVH (France)

See http://stefan.gofferje.net/it-stuff/sipfraud

Really, if everybody would run statistics on attacks and publish them, those ISPs would pretty quickly not only start reacting to fouled servers but probably start monitoring proactively because being in the top 20 of attacker-IPs ain't good for their reputation...
