I'm doing a pen test a new IPS appliance from outside the network, while

I found that the server designated as my target was a honeypot set up by

our server team rather than a

normal server.

I've now been challenged to now tell them the actual name of the honeypot

software they are using.


The blue ribbon here is to find a vuln in the honeypot itself and break out
into the host OS.  But that may not be very realistic.

You could try fingerprinting the OS and services that it is imitating and
compare that list to which honeypots imitate what.  But that's kind of a
shot in the dark, and if it's imitating only IIS on Windows, well, then,
that's not going to cut it.

Have you considered bribing one of the NOC guys to let you in or just tell
you what they're using? :)
