Hello everyone,
I have a security problem on a set of Cisco ASR 9001 routers with Cisco IOS XR Version 6.9.2.
Our Nessus port scanner detects an open tcp port on the interface ip addresses, for example 46581 or 52861.
It doesn't matter if it's an ethernet interface ip or the loopback.
Example:
root@monito:~$ telnet x.130 46581
Trying x.130...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection reset by peer
root@monito:~$ telnet x.131 46581
Trying x.131...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
root@monito:~$ telnet x.132 46581
Trying x.132...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
root@monito:~$ telnet x.131 52861
Trying x.131...
Connected to x.131.
Escape character is '^]'.
^C
Do you have any idea what is running behind these ports?

Hey,
after rebooting the router, port 38478 is now open.
Is this a backdoor from the NSA or the Chinese?
