Subject: iptables leaking blocked ip addresses.
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2005 10:34:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49bf7d7050620083448c1dee9@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

hello;

i have recently noticed that iptables is leaking blocked ip addresses into
the local network.

one example of the leak is below:

200.0.0.0/8 is dropped if the destination port is 25 (smtp).
the large majority of the packets are dropped but a random few are leaking
pass iptables.
404 19712 DROP       tcp  --  eth2   *       200.0.0.0/8         
0.0.0.0/0           tcp dpt:25
143   6992 DROP       tcp  --  eth2   *       201.0.0.0/8         
0.0.0.0/0           tcp dpt:25

at the 2nd lines of defenses the following is seen:

date and time is utc.

version iptables v1.2.11.
