Trojan attacking our switches
From: Charles Polisher <cpolish () attbi com>
Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2003 17:50:34 -0800

Search of CVE and securityfocus and googling
did not turn up adequate information. Anyone 
seen this beast? 

Our campus network has a couple of thousand hosts, 
and 93 switches. 

Telnetting into our HP Procurve 2524 switch 
shows an ongoing attempt to brute-force the 
SNMP community (public, of course). HP apparently
does not provide a method for disbling SNMP, and
we're going to have to visit all 93 switches
in person to set a strong password -- yes, it had
been left blank!

PCdoorguard 3 virus scanner identified a
virus, "f*ck door server", but provides little
useful information other than pointing to 
\windows\system\setdefed.exe which is 24,576 bytes.

Thanks,
Charles Polisher
