Login with user test on all fireboxes the last 2 days

Hi,

The last 2 days i see logins from different ip addreses, not located in DK, with user TEST on all my fireboxes.

For now i have setup a rule to only allow login on most of my fireboxes from DK.

Authpoint logfile attached.

Have any of you seen this? It seems a bit odd they are hitting all my fireboxes at once.

Regards
Robert

  • I can see they are hitting my sslvpn interface on my boxes:

    All are reported as Sub-Category UNKNOWN

    Looking as some of my valid users Sub-Category is LDAP_PUSH but sometimes they are also listed as UNKNOWN which cases they can´t login.

    Hi @Robert_Vilhelmsen
    I'm assuming that you've probably already done so, but please create a support case for this -- at face value this probably shouldn't be happening, but I can't really provide any data on how or why without more context.

    If you can reply with the case number I can ensure it's with the correct team to help as quickly as possible.

  • Hi @james.carson

    Thank you. I did indeed open a case, 01837549, and got a very good answer.
    All in all it ended up with the advice to use geolocation to block unwanted countries to access the sslvpn policy on my fireboxes.

    Good morning,

    Multiple WatchGuard customers and partners have reported the suspicious behavior to the support team with a lot of similar questions. IN response we have published the following knowledge-base article.
