Is it time to abandon bogon prefix filters?

"Bogon" filters made a lot of sense when most of the Internet was
bogons. Back when 5% of the IP space was allocated blocking the
other 95% was an extremely useful endevour. However, by the same
logic as we get to 80-90% used, blocking the 20-10% unused is
reaching diminishing returns; and at the same time the rate in which
new blocks are allocated continues to increase causing more and
more frequent updates.

Have bogon filters outlived their use? Is it time to recommend people
go to a simpler bogon filter (e.g. no 1918, Class D, Class E) that
doesn't need to be updated as frequently?

Yes. 1918 (10/8, 172.16/12, 192.168/16), D, E, reflective (outgoing
mirroring), and as always individual discretion.

This makes sense especially for static filters. Automated feeds, such
as the bogon route-server or DNS zones, leaves folks with options.

Honestly, I don't believe the 80/20 rules applies here.

Until all transit networks are willing to strictly filter their
downstreams (and themselves!), if there is any unused space (note I
said "unused", not "unallocated"), the miscreants will use it. They
are not going around saying "oh, damn, there are only a few /8s left,
we better stop!".

Filter your bogons. But do it in an automated fashion, from a trusted
source.

Of course, I recommend Team Cymru, which has a most sterling record.
Nearly perfect (other than the fact they still recommend MD5 on BGP
sessions :).

serious curiosity:

what is the proportion of bad stuff coming from unallocated space vs
allocated space? real measurements, please. and are there longitudinal
data on this?

are the uw folk, gatech, vern, ... measuring?

Let me see what we can produce in the way of data. I'll just count
2008, though I could go back further if there's interest. Stay tuned, I
should have some answers in a few hours.

Seems like filtering against those could be done on the backplane, so to
speak.

One of the things that has always puzzled me is this:

In the default-free zone, why is necessary to filter _against_ anybody?
Seems like traffic for which there is no route would at most be dumped
to an error-log someplace.

For folks with a default route, I have long advocated (with no success
what ever) filtering against stuff like the above, your own networks as
sourced somewhere else, such.

I also think a central blacklist a la spamhaus for networks makes sense.

I still have 2 of my borders using an inbound ACL to filter BOGONs vs
null routes. For the ACLs I've broken down the BOGONs to nothing larger
than a /8. I see a number of hits on those entries, especially on 94/8.
and 0/8. While some of the other hits are accidental I'm sure, I
would seriously doubt if those 2 /8s are.

In my opinion no; BOGON filters are still very useful. Back when only
5% of the IP space was allocated we didn't have the same kinds of
serious threats to our networks and our users that we have today. We
didn't have spammers hijacking unallocated space (can if be considered
hijacking when the block hasn't been allocated yet?) to mass mail our
users, host phishing servers, run C&C servers for botnets, etc. Today
we do and the use of what few networks are still unallocated for bad
purposes are prevalent.

For my users I only recommend that they use dynamic methods of keeping
up to date with changes in the BOGON list. While I still do much of my
BOGON work manually, as I'm sure many of us do, I have my local BOGON
lists updated within a few hours of learning of a new allocation
(sometimes even before the bogon-announce email arrives). For those
that aren't uber network geeks I recommend using something automated.

Look at it this way: you have what's essentially a mostly static list
of netblocks from which all traffic is unquestionably malicious.
Wouldn't you block it if you could for the sake of your network security
and that of your users?

I knew I should have logged into a production box to look at the ACL
counters. But no, I thought the former border that I was already logged
into was good enough. Apparently not! :-) I stopped updating it's
BOGON list when it was decommissioned and retasked. I could have sworn
that was just this past April and the only change since then was 112 and
113/8 which I accounted for mentally. Apparently it was longer ago than
I thought!

I'm confused. Why does it matter if you are DF or not?

If the packets are just coming in, there does not need to be a prefix
in the table.

If duplex communication is required (e.g. spam runs), a prefix need to
be in the table whether you have a 0/0 or not.

We know spammers have done runs by announcing a block (which gets it
into the DFZ if it is not filtered properly), send spam, pull prefix.
So again, why does it matter if you have a default route or not?

Then again, it does make Team Cymru an attractive target for DoS or even compromise if they can control routing policy to a degree for a large number of disparate networks. Especially if it gets in the way of for-profit spammers.

(Not trying to knock them, just providing a for consideration. I would certainly hope and expect that Team Cymru would do their due dilligance in that respect, but it seems like an attractive central point of failure to attack to me.)

RE: Is it time to abandon bogon prefix filters? [In reply to]

1. DOS of Cymru (as noted below).
2. False Positives. Your network is suddenly stranded. Maybe on purpose. (DOS of a network, e.g. China or Youtube).
3. False Negatives. A bogus network is suddenly centrally rubber-stamped. Could happen. We've seen a lot of shenanigans with the domain registrars--similar issues could happen here.
.
.

I guess I am just trying to say that a centralized trusted repository brings with it a chance for a single point of failure. Could be the pros outweigh the cons. There are issues with a de-centralized system as well (which is what brought this conversation about.) Nothing specific to Cymru.

Attacks or misconfigured leaks?

Leaks of RFC1918 stuff is pretty common, just ask any of the root server
operators how many packets they see from RFC1918 leaking networks or do a
traceroute across several residential cable network backbones.

Attacks aren't as common because there is enough (not 100%) anti-spoofing
(good) and/or bogon-filters (not as good) in different parts of the
Internet it requires more thought to launch a spoofed DDOS than it does
just to use tens of thousands of non-spoofed bots to launch a DDOS.

Arbor Networks has some data.

Re: Is it time to abandon bogon prefix filters? [In reply to]

Hi, Skywing.

We've had a few DDoS attacks and lots of scans and hack attempts. Some
of the DDoS attacks managed to wipe out our front-end. At no point were
the route-servers impacted, since we keep them well away from our
networks, widely distributed, and vigorously monitored (configs,
responsiveness, advertisements).

Of course we're not perfect and there is no 100% solution, but we
understand the implications of filtering gone awry (especially since we
use it ourselves), and spend a lot of time and code keeping an eye on
these things. Knowing that no one has a monopoly on imagination, we
also have some friends at commercial pen-testers hit us regularly, just
to be sure. :)

Thanks,
Rob.

Use a prefix list of existing bogons against the Team Cymru BGP feed. If
they are hacked this limits the possible attacks to the following bounds:

1) They advertise no address space, and you end up with no bogon filtering.
2) They advertise all of the IPv4 address space, but your prefix list
limits this to (an admittedly out-of-date) list of bogons.

How can you recommend Team Cymru, when their product is not in any way a
filter? It is merely an automated method of injecting aggregate null
routes for bogons, but in no way prevents a network from accepting
aggregate or specific bogon announcements (i.e. it does not _filter_).

HUH?

Team Cymru offers many ways to set up filters, null routes, etc. See <http://www.team-cymru.org/Services/Bogons/
>.

Oh, and to answer Randy's question about how much actually comes from
bogons, on that same page:

<quote>
How much does it help to filter the bogons? In one study conducted by
Rob Thomas of a frequently attacked site, fully 60% of the naughty
packets were obvious bogons (e.g. 127.1.2.3, 0.5.4.3, etc.). A
presentation based on that study, entitled "60 Days of Basic
Naughtiness," can be viewed here. Your mileage may vary, and you may
opt to filter more conservatively or more liberally. As always, you
must KNOW YOUR NETWORK to understand the effects of such filtering.
</quote>

I guess that means filtering bogons is useful.

Stated another way, you can get 60% success on bogon filtering by
ignoring the free pool (which is getting smaller over time which
indicates the value in filtering it is asymptotic to zero) and only
filtering obvious crud, whose definition is not going to change over time.

In other words, Leo is right, and I'd submit that we're past the point
where putting in non-auto-updated filters for the free pool has a
value that exceeds the operational cost of dealing with their
lossage... by a couple of years.

if 127.1.2.3 and 0.5.4.3 are in the free pool, we have a few more /8s in
the bank then we thought, eh? :)

I guess I didn't really word that clearly.

My point was that by not including the free pool in your candidates
for filtering (i.e., only filtering out packets from addresses that
will never be allocated or are permanently reserved such as 1918
space), you're only sacrificing 40% of your likely hits... and that
number is going down over time. Why not just cut to the chase and
make a filter that will never go stale, take any possible lumps on the
bogus packet announcement side, and collect handsomely on the
operational side?

I read that thrice and thought "wtf?" twice, until I properly
dereferenced "rob" to "robt", not "rs". Heh.

Yep yep, have some results at last. Sorry, the queries took a bit
longer than planned.

Note that the study I conducted which populated the "60 Days of Basic
Naughtiness" presentation is now years old. Such studies, like me,
don't necessarily age well. :)

This is not meant to replace a more comprehensive and clueful study by
the likes of Vern, Stefan, and the CAIDA crew. As folks may know we
have a large Darknet[1] project. In there we collect the scanning
activity of malware, backscatter, and the like. Often we can tie the
scanning pattern to a family of malware or maltool.

If the source of a scan or probe is a bogon, we tag it that way in our
data store. I went back to 2008-01 and found the following percentages
of bogons in our data:

2008-01: 0.001095262%
2008-02: 0.001759343%
2008-03: 0.001619555%
2008-04: 0.001433908%
2008-05: 0.001182351%
