Lord of the Rings · #80 (**permalink**) August 9th, 2017

I'm one of those rare people that keeps an eye on their uploads (& network as a whole.) Last night whilst using WireShare I was surprised to see my upload window full before noticing the pseudo-name SmilingPig beside many of them and with different identifying addresses.

One alarm bell was that the host was identifying itself as LimeZilla/1.8 (if it really was LimeZilla), but this version is ancient. LimeZilla is up to using version 4 nowadays. Two of the uploads SmilingPig was downloading/queued to download were the same two files; thus 4 upload/queue slots for two files. Surprised it was not sapping the entire upload bandwidth made available to WireShare however.

ISP: NFOrce Entertainment B.V. Netherlands; Netname: Amsterdam_Residential_Television_and_Internet_Netw ork. Services: Network sharing device or proxy server.

After blocking several, more showed up:

Then another attack a day later with 16 fresh addresses within the same sub-ranges. It also browsed me.
212.92.104.85
212.92.105.147

212.92.122.206
212.92.123.65
212.92.123.75

If you look carefully among the two lists you will notice the same sub-ranges using the same last number.

Example: all those in the 212.92.115.* range use 7 as the last number, all those in the .108.* range using 4 as the last number, etc. Although the .123.* range shows a variance.
