Subject: Re: Bad news on RPC DCOM vulnerability


Looks like it is not limited to XP, as was suspected all along. My 
sensors have detected events from an exploited Win2K box. The detect was 
from the vigilantminds sig.

 From the logs, the attack looks sequential starting at the current subnet.

Taking a closer look at this host reveals a version other than XP, which lends some credibility to the thought that hosts other than XP are exploitable.

>> Security Community,
>>
>> The following information references a serious security threat to you or
>> your organization if the proper measures have not been taken to prevent
>> its destructive intent.
>>
>> Description of Issue
>> --------------------
>> VigilantMinds has successfully validated the claims regarding the latest
>> Microsoft Remote Procedure Call (RPC) vulnerability. Specifically,
>> VigilantMinds has validated that hosts running fully patched versions of
>> the following Microsoft operating systems REMAIN subject to denial of
>> service attacks and possible remote exploitation:
>>
>> * Microsoft Windows XP Professional
>> * Microsoft Windows XP Home
>> * Microsoft Windows 2000 Workstation
>>
>> Although it has not been verified at this time, other versions of
>> Microsoft Windows are also suspected to be subject to this
>> vulnerability.
>>
>> As with the prior RPC vulnerability (MS03-039), these attacks can occur
>> on TCP ports 135, 139, 445 and 593; and UDP ports 135, 137, 138 and 445.
>>
>>
>> Remediation Actions
>> -------------------
>> VigilantMinds has notified CERT/CC and informed the vendor of this
>> issue. As of this posting, no vendor patch is yet available.
>>
>> As a temporary solution, VigilantMinds suggests that firewall rules be
>> placed on all affected ports for any exposed systems. All external
>> connectivity (including VPN) should be firewalled actively for
>> unnecessary incoming RPC activity.
>>
>> A Snort signature that will detect traffic patterns associated with this
>> attack is below. Note that current Snort signatures may also identify
>> this attack.
>>
>>
>> Further References
