Nothing is exposed directly to the internet, but I had some development services that were accessible on my private network.
I do use Dropbox, but the odd part was it seemingly IPsec traffic.
I really should have grabbed a pcap when it was occurring. I only have a screenshot of tcpdump which is not very useful.
- yabones 4y agoWas it IPsec traffic, or just something running on the IPsec port?
- wasipwned 4y agoUnfortunately, I did not save any packet captures, so I only saw that it was on the IPsec port.
- CamperBob2 4y agoDropbox would be my #1 suspect. They like to play fast and loose with your networking resources. I have seen Dropbox open lots of weird, undocumented ports for purposes their own support people aren't aware of. Case in point: https://pdfhost.io/v/1C9zgOibj_port_1298_1299_dialogue_with_dropbox https://pdfhost.io/v/1C9zgOibj_port_1298_1299_dialogue_with_... (23 kB .PDF) Kill your Dropbox process(es) -- there will probably be several, again for no clear reason -- and I'll bet this behavior stops. Whenever my system behaves in an unexpected way, I've learned to start the troubleshooting process by temporarily killing Dropbox.
