From: dennish at comcast.net (Dennis Heaton) Subject: ISS Security Brief: "MS Blast" MSRPC DCOM Worm Propagation (fwd) On the car radio today I heard that the Maryland Dept. of Motor Vehicles was shutdown completely as well as numerous other state and federal agencies in the USA. What is really scary is that many companies or agencies will not report their problems...the IT department does not want to look stupid. So we may never really now the extent of this worm! ------------------------------ On Tuesday 12 August 2003 08:34, Richard Stevens wrote: > I appreciate that many users dont know what a firewall is.. but this > stuff is given so much coverage and sales pitch.. it makes you wonder.... It shouldn't surprise you. Just go back and read yesterday's list traffic. Take notice of how many people (on this list no less!) were apparently blissfully unaware that there was a vulnerability in the first place, much less knew what the symptoms were. Many of these people appear to be the very folks charged with maintaining systems and networks. How could they not know? - -- Jonathan Rickman X Corps Security http://www.xcorps.net
