Hi all,

I've got a copy of this (popular :) ) Solaris-Microsoft worm... and I am
really surprised by it's IIS exploit - it's just an old unicode thing...
people should thank heavens that the anonymous writer did not add a new
IIS
5.0 web printer bug :)

by default the worm itself sits in /dev/cuc - check it if you have a
Solaris
box :)

if somebody is interested in developing signatures/whatever, I attach here
worm's iis defacement script. The worm itself, btw, is rather small (20 kb
in zip if you exclude things like wget, gzip and nc - it carries them as
well, so "full version" is ~700kb)

regards,
Vitaly.
