Alert Notification Popup Should Resolve IP Address To Hostname (DNS Record)

[AtlasHackert]

The biggest problem with that is that reverse DNS isn't trustworthy; it's easy to forge the record, or have it display a wrong domain (there can be multiple domains associated with one IP). Showing information that can be wrong is a bad idea for security software.

That said: if somebody figures out a compromise, it's definitely something valuable to have.

Thanks for the quick reply. I guess using traceroute will have to do for the time being. It's more fun anyway. :-)

Hi, This feature was implemented a while back but wasn't working everytime. It should still be there anyway… I don't remember disabling it :-) Thanks Khan

I disabled it some time ago for two reasons: the one stated above, and the DNS lookup was itself triggering WFN notifications.

[wokhan]

Ok, makes sense :-) Sorry I missed this. Thank you

This is in the pipeline - implemented a DNS resolver working in the background. Currently working on integration with SecurityLog and then maybe Map and Connections

[harrwiss]

DNS Resolver is implemented for Security Log, Connections, Map and Notifier (tooltip on Target IP option). However today there are many host IP's which have no DNS entry resulting in No such host is known when resolved. If you click on the Target IP link in Notifier it will do a lookup on an online service to get more details.

Note: Just noticed, that clicking on the Target IP link in Notifier crashes in the netcore3 version.

[wokhan]

Any crashing with netcore31 should be due to missing assemblies (since they are now pulled from nuget). Hopefully 😁

[harrwiss]

Crash fixed with #76

[harrwiss]

Btw: The TargetInfoUrl and TargetPortUrl for the online service to use can be configured in the settings config file.
