-- 
Summary: 
An intelligence gathering attack against the finger daemon

-- 
Impact:
The attacker may obtain information about user accounts on the target system.

--
Detailed Information:
This event is generated when an attempt is made to use a finger command against a host with a username of "0".  A finger query against a vulnerable finger daemon may allow the attacker to obtain a list of accounts on the target system with some details for each account where present (such as time and source of the last login). 

Obtaining a list of accounts might precipitate further attacks such as password guessing, email attacks and other abuse.

--
Attack Scenarios:
An attacker learns that the "sys" account exists on the system. He then proceeds to guess the password and is then able to gain remote access to the system.

-- 
Ease of Attack: 
Simple, no exploit software required

-- 
False Positives: 
None Known

--
False Negatives: 
None Known

-- 
Corrective Action: 
Disable the finger daemon or limit the addresses that can access the service via firewall or TCP wrappers.
