Guest northamuk Posted May 28, 2004 Report Share Posted May 28, 2004 From PCMAG.com"Our top threat of the week is the Bobax.D worm. The fourth in the family, Bobaxuses the same LSASS vulnerability that the Sasser family did. It hasn't had a Sasser-sized impact, but it has the potential (if Sasser doesn't infect the un-patched systems first). Bobax is a little more dangerous than Sasser, as it deletes and changes system files, and sets up an open e-mail relay to send spam from a victim's machine. It even checks the speed of the victim's connection, presumably to cherry-pick the best spam-sending systems. See our Top Threat for more information."http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,1600125,00.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
