    I have noticed this also; my logs show an increase in this type of
    traffic starting on 08/20 @ 23:06:05 PDT.

    Here is a list of sources:

    Subject: Increase in scans on TCP port 1 (tcpmux)?

    Over the past couple days I've noticed an increase in

    scans targeting TCP port 1. While looking at my logs,

    I noticed an odd pattern to the Source IPs of these

    scans. If you look at the listing below, it looks

    like the scans started coming from 24.62, then 24.61,

    24.60, 20.59, and 24.58 IP addresses. 24.60 thru

    24.62 belong to attbi (now Comcast), 24.58 thru 24.59

    belong to Time Warner Cable (RoadRunner), Syracuse NY.

    Has anyone else seen these? Any ideas what they could

    be? I'm guessing from the pattern that either it's a

    backdoor trojan that's being exploited to trigger

    scans, and the controlling hacker is hitting IP ranges

    sequentially in decreasing order, or the source IPs

    are spoofed.
