Inbound Policy Violation

Hi,

I’ve checked my Comodo firewall log, and I saw that it was logging different messages with the same description, Inbound Policy Violation. And the difference in time between every message is about 20-30 seconds. Why is this happening?

I atached the log.

I searched some topics and I managed to find out what’s happening. ;D
I’ve created three rules to block incoming ICMP IN/Any/Any/ where the ICMP message was HOST/NET/PORT UNREACHABLE.
I’m using uTorrent. Is there any chance that the rules above could affect my up/down speed?

It might affect it. I have allowed those (host, port), but you are welcome to report if you think uTorrent is getting slower with your block.

It seems that those rules don’t block traffic. :slight_smile: And there aren’t so many messages logged.

Now I receive these :

Date/Time :2006-11-29 13:20:41
Severity :Medium
Reporter :Network Monitor
Description: Inbound Policy Violation (Access Denied, IP = 86.107.126.xxx, Port = ms-rpc(135))

Destination: 86.107.126.xxx:ms-rpc(135)

What is ms-rpc?

Date/Time :2006-11-29 13:20:51

There are a lot of incoming requests for port 52276, 1936, 2885, 2771.

And also this:

Date/Time :2006-11-29 13:22:41

I’ve received five or six in a row.

ms-rpc is Microsoft Remote Procedure Call

The last one in your post looks like someone was trying to get in from New Zealand to Canada?, Romania?.. :o :wink: ;D

I’m from Romania (:WAV)
The ip was from New Zeeland. I’ve traced the ip.

But what about the connections coming from 52276? They’re a lot. Are they in conection with uTorrent?

Thanks for the help!:d

What port have you set up uTorrent to use? You can’t use random.

For uTorrent it’s 24211.

Does the 52276 appear when you use uTorrent?

Have you made a rule in network monitor for port 24221?
You should also uncheck UPnP and random in uTorrent.

Yes, I’ve made a rule for 24211.
I haven’t checked if it appears when uTorrent isn’t active, but I will.
Random is unchecked, but UPnP is checked. I’ll try and see what happens.

Thanks!

I changed my utorrent port, now it’s 55000, but now a lot of connections coming from 24211 are beeing blocked an locked. Shouldn’t the tracker update with my new port?
I’ve unchecked UPnP, and the messages with port 52267 beeing blocked keep appearing. :-\

Try to reboot your PC.
I think uTorrent should update to the new port, but it will take some time maybe…

Done that. Doesn’t work.
And I’m also sending a large number of fragmented/fake or malformed ip packets through UDP. Some of them are through port 55000, some have no port.
Probably generated by uTorrent? Is it normal?

Yes it can be normal.

Have you tried to just turn off network monitor and see if it works?

Have you tried to go to security/advanced/advanced attack detection and prevention, and turn off some things in there? or any other things in advanced?
