IPS Security alert with my Znuny server

Post by FSF »

Hello

Following an update of my UTM my Znuny server v6.3 (with IP 172.16.0.83) is blocked by my IPS service:

Deny src_ip=172.16.0.83 dst_ip=172.16.0.254 pr=icmp src_port= dst_port= src_intf=Lan server dst_intf=Firebox msg=blocked sites (reason = IPS autoblock: rule id=1135986) pckt_len=84 ttl=64 policy=(Ping-00) proxy_action= proc_id="firewall" rc="101" msg_id="3000-0173"

reason = IPS autoblock: rule id=1135986 corresponds to "IMAP Dovecot and Pigeonhole Remote Code Execution -1 (CVE-2019-11500)"

For the moment, my server is completely isolated from the rest of the network.

What in Znuny is causing this?

Thank you in advance

This is perhaps Dovecot issue that installed within the server

It's true that I forgot to mention that I'm running Debian 11.

And the commands: "service dovecot status" and "service postfix status" returns "unit service.postfix could not be found" and "unit service.dovecot could not be found"

In/etc/ postfix and dovecot are not presents

Hi,

Nothing in Znuny is related to this. When I read your log entry correctly, it's an ICMP/ping that causing this. There is no component in Znuny or add-ons from Znuny where an ICMP/ping is executed.
