First, I love the show! I listen to many technology and security related podcasts and always enjoy your new episodes the most.

Here's my stab at the Syngress question of the week for episode 32.

The ports you corrected Security Now on were:

UDP 53 (DNS)
TCP 445 (MS directory svc)

As you correctly pointed out these are sourced from ephemeral ports to the destiation port.

Two protocols that do use the same source and destination ports relate to IPSec.

UDP 500 (ISAKMP)
UDP 4500 (ISAKMP for NAT-T)

Thank you for all you do with the Podcast, video, blog(s), etc. It's a great service to the security community.

Couldn't edit your show notes and they weren't on there (neither was www.insecuremag.com)

Gotta agree with you guys about Steve Gibson and the inaccuracies on Security Now! I just mentioned this on my blog a day or two ago and decided to quit listening to SN (before I listened to your episode #31).

"I WROTE A WEB SERVER IN X86 ASM!!!!!111" -- gibson.

Dipshit.

If it wasn't after midnight, I'd write about another inaccuracy in that episode of SN... they were talking about using a third-party so that two hosts, both behind firewalls, could establish a connection with each other. It had to do with a firewall recognizing a connection as "established" and therefore allowing return traffic on that port back into the internal network. Problem is, any stateful firewall worth a damn bases that off of the combination of source IP, source port, destination IP, and destination port.

Therefore, establishing a connection from PC1 to PC2 across the internet doesn't do jack with regards to allowing traffic from PC3 to traverse my firewall and make it back into PC1 on that same port number.

Hopefully I made sense there. It's late and I'm tired.

Good work on the podcasts, guys, I really enjoy them. It's nice listening to them in the background in the office to keep me awake. =)
