Update: I am trying to verify claims that Olborg Ltd are operating a sinkhole (which is a good thing) rather than a malware server (a bad thing).
Last week I pointed out a malware site on 91.233.244.102 hosted by Olborg Ltd / ООО "ОЛЬБОРГ" (AS57636) [1] [2] (website at o1host.net) and made a recommendation that admins block access to the entire 91.233.244.0/23 block.
A polite but concerned email from a customer of Olborg with a legitimate sitein that range asked if I wasn't being rather harsh to Olborg with the recommended /23 block, for just one rogue IP.
First, let me explain my rationale behind recommending larger blocks that just single IP addresses. With many web hosts (and yes, a lot of those are in Eastern Europe) the badness isn't usually restricted to one IP address. This appears to be the case with Olborg, with more than one IP looking suspicious. From the point of view of an administrator, blocking a /24 or /23 displaying these characteristics is often the safest approach.. after all, a /24 only represents 0.000006% of the total address space of the internet, but malware sites do tend to cluster.
So, what exactly is going on with Olborg? Although it has 91.233.244.0/23 allocated to it, it only currently uses 91.233.244.0/24 (i.e. the lower half of the range). Of those IPs there appear to be two main blocks, lower down in the range 91.233.244.20, 91.233.244.22 and 91.233.244.28 all seem to host legitimate sites. But further up, 91.233.244.102, 91.233.244.103 and 91.233.244.106 seem to be malicious. It's hardly the most evil web host in the world though, but these rogue IPs are a concern.
I had a look at all the sites I could find in this address range and analysed their WOT ratings, Google malware prognosis and SURBL status, you can find it here [csv]. The SURBL code takes a little explaining, but basically 127.0.0.16 is malware, 127.0.0.4 is (mostly) spam and 127.0.0.20 is both. There more explanation of that here.
The IP 91.233.244.102 has been an issue for over a year [1] [2] [3] [4] although it may or may not be clean at the moment (anti-analysis techniques mean that it can be hard to be certain). Clean or not, I would certainly advise you not to send traffic to this IP.
OK. So you've read this far and somehow I have still kept you interested in Olborg Ltd. All the badness I can find is concentrated in 91.233.244.96/28 and blocking that should keep you protected from any current potential nastiness. Alternatively, you can block the /23, but do bear in mind that there are some legimate customers in that range too (update: and if they are running a sinkhole then there's no point blocking the /23 anyway)

Olborg Ltd / ОЛЬБОРГ / o1host.net (AS57636) revisited
Monday 10 May 2010
Evil network: Sagade Ltd / ATECH-SAGADE
There's been an awful lot of badness from Latvia recently, with several fake AV apps and other Very Bad Things hosted in the range 91.188.59.0 - 91.188.59.255, which appears to be a wholly bad subnet of pure evil. It looks like a similar setup to Real Host Ltd which was shut down last year.

All these websites appear to be malicious, I cannot find a single site that I can identify as being legitimate. Most have obviously fake WHOIS details too. I would recommend blocking access to the whole IP block.

martuz.cn injection attack
In the past couple of weeks, thousands of websites were hit with an injection attack pointing to gumblar.cn.. this week it has changed to martuz.cn. It's not a SQL injection attack as far as I can tell, the smart money is that it is using compromised FTP credentials, possibly harvested from end-user PCs rather than a problem with the web server itself.
A typical attack is that JS files on the victim's server are altered with an obfuscated (i.e. partly encrypted) script which might vector through martuz.cn/vid/?id=5718066 or martuz.cn/vid/?id=575730 or something similar, then leading to martuz.cn/vid/?id=3 or another similarly named page (the exact URLs may vary depending on the client software).
There's a writeup about martuz.cn here and here, in the meantime blocking traffic to the domain and the IP address 95.129.145.58 will probably be a good idea.

UkrTeleGroup vanishes, morphs.
First some good news (via the WaPo Security Fix blog): well known black hat web host UkrTeleGroup appears to have vanished from the internet. The bad news is that seems to have morphed into a company called Internet Path which is masquerading as a US company.
Unfortunately, it does not appear that this is an Atrivo / McColo / Estdomains style situation where the bad guys are permanently shut down.. yet. But perhaps continued pressure on upstream providers might have some effect.. who knows?

McColo dead - spam 69% down
If there was any doubt the McColo was behind a vast majority of the world spam, then I think the figures speak for themselves. We're seeing a 69% drop in spam volumes day-on-day (although we still only have one day's worth of post-McCole data). It will be interesting to see how long this takes to recover back to "normal" levels of awfulness.
