Fake SMTP/FTP Server Detection (possible backdoor)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 32376

Language:

Synopsis

The remote service seems to be a backdoor

Description

Although this service answers with 3 digit ASCII codes like FTP, SMTP or NNTP servers, it sends back different codes when several NOOP commands are sent in a row.

This is probably a backdoor; in this case, your system is compromised and an attacker can control it remotely.

Solution

Disinfect or reinstall your operating system.
