Re: Linux Slapper Worm
From: Charles Stevenson <core () bokeoa com>

This method of security through obscurity will not prevent another
hacker from chaning the worm to use one of the modified versions of the
exploit which supports brute forcing. Nor does it trick Solar Eclipse's
scanner which actually overflows and checks to see if the server
response contains our data. All you did was waste your time. :)

peace,
core
