Gents,
I hate to sound like a Dill but what is the basic vulnerability
of port 57 (mtp service) ???
i've looked and cant find much about it and mtp service
nor attacks based around that
but i knew someone who did state (and they where a pretty factual person too !)
that there are good access attacks thru 57 and any "assigned copy ports" (go
me here what the heck is a assigned copy port?? a port above 1024 that does
the same job?)
just wish they where still here to explain...
can any of you blokes answer this??
besides denial of service attacks to here
what else is there??
Cheers!!
