Re: New worm / port 1434?

Can you give me any information about which multicast group addresses were being attacked ?

I have seen very little sign of this worm in interdomain multicast; it does not seem
to be causing MSDP havoc the way that the RAMEN worm did.

This one seemed to be particularly nasty as it was generating traffic to
multicast addresses too. It caused a nice flood on the switched ethernet
segment I had a vulnerable box on. (And took out a router in the process.
Great fun.)
