1 Yesterday SNORT got messages of this kind :
2 BAD-TRAFFIC same SRC/DST [Classification: Potentially Bad Traffic].
3
4 It's about communication where source and target are the same IP.
5
6 There's weird communication between ports on private server IP
7 (192.168.1.1):
8 192.168.1.1:3306(mysql) -> 192.168.1.1:62321
9 192.168.1.1:62321(mysql) -> 192.168.1.1:3306
10 192.168.1.1:3306(mysql) -> 192.168.1.1:62322
11 192.168.1.1:62322(mysql) -> 192.168.1.1:3306
12 and so on...
13
14 The same is with public IP:
15 123.45.67.8:80 -> 123.45.67.8:34124
16 123.45.67.8:34124 -> 123.45.67.8:80
17
18 MySQL daemon is stopped.
19 Apache daemon is running bound on both interfaces.
20
21 In log there is trace (made by SNORT) of this every 5 minutes.
22
23 Tried chkrootkit -- no help.
24
25 Here is output of `tcpdump -nei lo dst host 192.168.1.1`

48 Server was not shutdown correctly due to power failure.
