Message | SNMP trap udp |
Summary | This event is generated when an SNMP-Trap connection over UDP to an SNMP daemon is made. |
Impact | Information gathering |
Detailed Information | The SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Trap daemon usually listens on port 162, tcp or udp. An attacker may attempt to send this request to determine if a device is using SNMP. |
Affected Systems | Devices running SNMP daemons on well known ports. |
Attack Scenarios | An attacker sends a packet directed to udp port 162, if sucessful a reply is generated and the attacker may then launch further attacks against the SNMP daemon. |
Ease of Attack | Simple. |
Corrective Action | Use a packet filtering firewall to protect devices using the SNMP protocol and only allow connections from well-known hosts. |
