Unresolveable links


mshalperin

Recommended Posts

I report spam using VER. With increasing freqency, Spamcop parsing reports that it "cannot resolve..." some or all links contained in the spam and can find only the source. These spams usually take up much more time before the results are displayed, and now contitute almost 1/3 of all spam I recieve. Does this trend represent a new tactic by spammers to defeat Spamcop parsing? It's hard to believe that so many links are nonfunctional.

Also... What defines a "spamvertized website"? I couldn't find any reference to this in the FAQ>

For the resolving issue, please see http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?...indpost&p=21095

What defines a "spamvertized website"?

I'm not sure where to go with that one, starting with that the term seems to be somewhat self-defining. A web-site being advertised via a spam e-mail ...???

Maybe the question is really asking about trying to decide whether the spamvertised site is part of the spam or an innocent bystander??? There's no way to offer up a generic response on that, as that decision is on a case-by-case situaion depending on the spam/spammer. Sometimes it's obvious, sometimes very hard to decide just who all is involved. So actually, I think my answer to that would include referencing the same link as offered above, going with Mike E.'s suggestion of "let's talk about a specific item" ....

I've alrady read this - it's not what I'm talking about. These are links within the spam which the parsing reports it can't resolve - not different results with repeat parsing. This was rare in the past, and more and more frequent over the last couple of months.

I'm not sure where to go with that one, starting with that the term seems to be somewhat self-defining. A web-site being advertised via a spam e-mail ...???

I wasn't clear here - What I meant was that the parsing occaisionally generates reports to and about (sent to 3rd parties) spamvertized websites and I'm I am unclear as to how the parsing identifies these sites.

Please offer up the Tracking URL of one of these items that you want to talk about.  That will help get around the guessing that's going on then.

Looking at my quick investigation below, could be they are bad links by the spammer or the sites were taken down or moved but the spammer was not informed of the change.

From the first one:

Cannot resolve http://flesuaos.21centurymeds.info/?wnrosi...rapiho'vteb

I tried samspade with no resolution of the site either.

the owner of the domain is:

Thanks for you help. As this seems to be happening more and more frequently, maybe spammers are on the run... Otherwise, they are devising new tactics to obfuscate their links.

Spammers frequently either use their own name servers (sometimes on dialup) or name services on some third party's name servers. In either case, we and their ISPs try to get those name services, if not name servers, shut down as one end result of our spam complaints. Thus, overall reliability of spammers' name service is not very high. I would define spamvertised as a contraction of spam-advertised (advertised in spam).

That having been written, I am getting the following results from NSLOOKUP here and now:

Name: flesuaos.21centurymeds.info

Address: 202.102.230.36 chinanet.cn.net, abuse[at]cnc-noc.net, and abuse[at]mci.com haven't seen fit to shut them down yet]

Name: uglossbonesg.doc7.info

Address: 202.102.230.36 [same as above]

Name: www.183.aarho.info

Address: [unavailable - seems to be pretty dead]

Maybe, but here's one I just reported - very fresh and not on any blocking list:

As I'm now seeing this in 30-50% of the spam email I receive, it's hard to believe it is all due to increasingly sloppy work by the spammers.

Lately I've been getting spam where Spamcop is unable to resolve the

addresses of the Web sites given in the spam, though I can resolve those addresses

just fine locally, via "dig". Here is one example tracking URL:

http://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z700892480za2...5db31f544a034cz

I analyzed this spam twice (reporting only once) just to allow for the

possibility of lag in the resolver chain. Same result both times.

Perhaps Spamcop could use "stealth" resolvers which issue queries from

address blocks outside the usual Spamcop range.

Reference mikeobrien posting;

wmxjoobthfm.go4medz.com resolves to the same IP Address (202.102.230.36) I mentioned in that Topic, and the SpamCop Parser can resolve that.

kmpmroblrphz.go4medz.com also resolves after a while to that same IP Address. The SpamCop Parser should be able to find it after a few refreshes over perhaps ten seconds.

First this I would do if interested is to attempt to ping the domain part of the address.

If there is a response, then you might want to try and browse to the site (samspade.org has a safe text-only browser) and see if it responds at all. If not, then the spamcop parse is correct that the site is not resolvable.

I tried this with the following unresovled links and was able to successfully ping the domains and browse the sites. The Spamcop parse appears to be defective.

The parse isn't defective, Spamcop just isn't getting a response from the servers. Here's a tracking URL:

http://www.spamcop.net/sc?id=z701216806z49...8becdea413dcf5z

No matter how often this spam is submitted, the web server name never resolves, yet I can

resolve it immediately via "dig". My guess is that the clever weenies have blocked Spamcop's

addresses from their DNS, or else in the Web server, if Spamcop tries to connect to such sites

to verify their existence.

Turns out it doesn't make a lick of difference. It's the usual Chinese weasels, so reporting

won't do a thing:

I am getting an awfuly high number of spams from these Chinese <<weasels>> which are devnulled by SC (understandably so) but not on any block lists when first reported.. in fact >70% of the spam I get is of that gender:

I've had several spam messages where SpamCop failed to resolve a link that simply pinging resolved.

Tracking link: http://atjfsdehwweqb.777-best.com/rm.php

No recent reports, no history available

Cannot resolve http://atjfsdehwweqb.777-best.com/rm.php

A simple "ping" reports the following:

Either the spammer's have figured out a way to trick SpamCop's parser, or SpamCop has a bug. While it's certainly more fun to attribute malevolence and blame the spammer, I'm betting it's a bug in SpamCop, such as a low time-out on the lookup.

In any case, I'm pert near to giving up, and just hitting the 'delete' button when spam makes it past my filters, rather than hunting shadows with an empty gun.

I'm leaning towards blaming an imcompatibility or blockage between SpamCop's dns resolvers and some of this particular gang's nameservers. In any case, you can still report the open proxies that this particular gang seems to like using.

Please see the following URLs for further details on this particular gang's webserver at 202.102.230.36 and its surrounding bulletproof CNCGROUP-HA shell inetnum 202.102.224.0 - 202.102.255.255 (CIDR 202.102.224.0/19):

SBL21479 (202.102.230.36/32; contains a nice long list of domains associated with this particular gang)

SBL20820 (202.102.230.36/30)

SBL20860 (202.102.230.0/24; web4deals.com ; hckdnc.com)

SBL21577 (202.102.224.0/19; CNCGROUP-HA escalation)

Related SBL Listing:

SBL20968

The following are the nameservers not in that inetnum used by this particular gang (in a syntax whose name escapes me at present):

221.5.251.213 ns{1.{muaisen|peiman}.biz}|2.manzan88.com} SBL21275, SBL20102, and SBL18126 (that is, ns1.muaisen.biz, ns1.peiman.biz, and the probable typo ns2.manzan88.com)

61.184.198.53 ns1.{hckdnc|manzan88}.com (formerly 221.5.251.213; isn't yet listed by the SBL)

61.184.198.54 ns2.{hckdnc.com|{muaisen|peiman}.biz} (isn't yet listed by the SBL; was somehow missed by the hostmaster for manzan88.com)

61.141.32.57 ns3.{{hckdnc|manzan88}.com|{muaisen|peiman}.biz} SBL15346

69.25.212.134 ns{1|2|3}.gtnlc.com (isn't yet listed by the SBL)

Some of their neighbors which serve their own names are:

202.102.230.37 oxbill.com SBL21127 (Ruslan Ibragimov / send-safe.com)

202.102.230.38 bestdeal4uyet.biz, timehostingwives.biz, and shedoesitallnight.biz (isn't yet listed by the SBL)

The following domains listed in SBL21479 as hosted by their neighbor 202.102.230.38 appear now to have moved to entirely different hosting:

hotobjectofdesire.biz

ewebsolution2004.biz

45pluswoman.biz

A variety of amusing issues are pointed out by dnsreport.com lookups of the following domains used by this particular gang (sorry about the profanity):

bighugeone.com

cyberbowlcut.com

eatmeout.biz

ekissme.org

freakyredhead.com

fu**meharder.net

gabbyplanet.com

junglecars.net

justnicetits.com

kissmynipples.com

nicebootygirl.com

olivetree.biz

petiteho.biz

supercrazynight.com

virtualwildflower.com

greengrowgrass.com

For a real chuckle, take a look at http://www.dnsreport.com/tools/dnsreport.c...ain=t-life.info

On a positive note, GoDaddy actually did something about 123firm.biz

Based on the following WHOIS data sans legalese for the five domains providing nameservice to this gang, I hereby dub them the Cordoba Spain spam Gang.

I'm leaning towards blaming an imcompatibility or blockage between SpamCop's dns resolvers and some of this particular gang's nameservers.  In any case, you can still report the open proxies that this particular gang seems to like using.

This appears to be due to a bug in Spamcop parsing which is being exploited by an increasingly large group of spammers. As I said before, I'm seeing this in 30-50% of what I'm reporting (from a variety of apparent sources), but was probably <10% 6 months ago. I doubt that it's just a particular gang and there are probably multiple nameservers being set up to exploit the bug. Manually reporting the open proxies is far too cumbersome and time consuming. Is any of this discussion being monitored by or reported to Spamcop managers in order to correct this?

This same issue is also being brought up over in the newsgroups, which most of the Deputies do regularly monitor. But to satisy your query, I will kicj a note up and see if someone will try to get some input from Julian on what's up. No promises, but .. <g>

Nothing really new ..... pretty much what's been said all along here.

Well if this is the same issue as on the newsgroups it would appear that in

the newsgroups case we are looking at websites (mostly on IP 202.102.230.36

I believe)  which have flakey ns's -- either intentionally flakey or

accidently. They seem to time out with great regularity.

If the user tries to look at the website and the resolver their ISP is using

happens to have the IP cached or manages to hit a working ns then they do

have the great good fortune to see the website.

There have also been cases in the past where the spammer ns's don't respond

to the SC lookup and there is not a whole lot that we can do about that. We

have a couple of things that we do try which may or may not be successful.

I sort of suspect that everyone is complaining about websites on the same IP
