We got hit by a group calling themselves the HUC (Hackers Union of China.) I verified that all unused ports were shutdown and got hit again today! Grrr. They change all of the home pages to a vanity line that reads "Powered by H.U.C(c00l li0n).-----li0n Crew"

Any info on how to block these guys would be appreciated. Also, are we the only ones? Anyone else getting hit? Thanks.

You say all unused ports are shut down.
Then I can tell you they are using your open ports.

Make sure you have patched your web server and any other public services. i.e DNS server...

Judging by the hackers .sig, it appears that this is then 'lion' worm/trojan that exploits some bind implementations. there's a util called 'lionfind' that I got a while back to search for suspicious files. Think it was from cert.

Your systems security was severely breached.
I suggest u first read CERT's "discover from root compromise" http://www.cert.org/tech_tips/root_compromise.html

Using Lion/Ramen stylee attack against vulnerable BIND8 to get in, read http://whitehats.com/library/worms/lion/ for the whole detailed story.

To check if you do have this worm, run the lion find script written by Bill Stearns.

They are no hackers. Just a bunch of crackers, I say. Can't stand them. Crackers have no morals, nor do they have skill. They just know how to break security...
