QVR + SS Security issue?

Post by rop »

Ok this is driving me nuts, so any suggestions are welcomed.

My setup is pretty simple Nas behind router with a private IP, been running 5 cameras with SS for about 4 years and till now all has worked great.
So today i log in to my NAS to find that this IP

Code: Select all

18.196.125.35
had been automatically blocked for N amount of minutes, twice...So there has been occasions in the past ive seen similar, so i proceded to add the IP to a perm blocked list. Immediately after adding the IP to the list my QVR MAC client dropped.. Si I tried to log into my SS via my NAS but nada it just didn't do anything... So i decided to unblock thee IP, still nothing. next I rebooted. Once back up SS is working, QVR is fine again. So i add the IP again to my block list, QVR GOES DOWN SS STOPS WORKING... :shock: BTW THIS IS NOT MY PUBLIC IP... HELP , Why does SS need this IP??? whats this IP for and what is being sent there????
Do we have a serious security issue here?

HELP

if ips get blocked on your system ...it means your nas is reachable and attackable from the outside..you should take care of that issue before anything else (disable port forwarding and/or upnp)
