| Norton Personal Firewall 2005 intrusion alert
I'm running NPF 2005 with my KAV 5.0. When I go to allmusic.com, I get this alert:
HTTP_MS_SQL_XML_CrossSiteScripting. Intruder: 0.0.0.0(2218). Risk Level: Medium. Protocol: TCP. Attacked IP: 63.214.183.16. Attacked Port: http(80).
Why is this coming up? I only get it on certain allmusic pages - like on the Anna Nalick page. |

This apparently originates from your computer. |

| Your system sends something which triggers this signature, this may be a false positive - are your IDS Definitions current? In your IDS log the version should read:
Intrusion Detection Signature File Version: 03.03.2005 Rev. 27. Intrusion Detection Engine Version: 1.9.1. |
|
 mvdu Premium join:2003-07-28 Collegeville, PA | Yes, that's the version I have. Thanks all for helping - I'll look around for more info. on the alert. -- Don't Blame Me, I Voted for Kerry! |

 mvdu Premium join:2003-07-28 Collegeville, PA | Thanks, antdude! I was wondering if it's a false positive, even if the info page says there aren't any FPs with this signature. -- Don't Blame Me, I Voted for Kerry! |

said by mvdu :Thanks, antdude! I was wondering if it's a false positive, even if the info page says there aren't any FPs with this signature. My son was getting those alerts and we fixed them. I'll edit this reply as soon as I can go look at his settings and get that information.
EDIT TO ADD: We began by unchecking the ALERT NOTIFICATION - not monitoring for the alert. In the case of allmusic.com that did the trick. If this does not work or you can not reach that site let me know....It all depends on what other services you have running when you are browsing to that site...
I would consider including Eric Howe's "Agnis" block list that can be used with NPF 2005: »https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/res···tm#AGNIS The AGNIS block lists can be used with Norton Internet Security 2002 Professional, Norton Internet Security 2003, Norton Internet Security 2003 Professional, Norton Personal Firewall 2003, Norton Internet Security 2004, Norton Internet Security 2004 Professional, Norton Personal Firewall 2004, Norton Internet Security 2005, and Norton Personal Firewall 2005, however, you must use the ProWAGoN utility written by Christian Haagensen to load, remove, and backup the block lists. »https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/res···tm#AGNIS Prowagon: »https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/res···prowagon

| Hi mvdu,
I am having trouble reproducing this particular attack. I went to www.allmusic.com and then searched for Ann Nalick in the search box. This did bring up the Anna Nalick page, but no attack.
I'm going to have some other folks on my team take a look at it. -- Intrusion Detection/Intrusion Prevention EngineeringSymantec Corporation. |

Make sure you also go to her discography page and the Wreck Of The Day page.
I recently got a new computer (Sony VAIO,) so maybe it has to do with software/hardware that came on it? -- Don't Blame Me, I Voted for Kerry! |
