Clearing Out From Under MyDoom


Clearing Out From Under MyDoom 01/27/2004 04:08 PM
I've been avoiding posting about the whole MyDoom virus/worm thing - since just about everyone knows about it. However, everyone also keeps submitting it, so just to get it out of the way, let's do a big MyDoom post that seems to hit on some of the less-well-covered aspects of the latest virus considered to be one of the biggest ever and likely to continue causing problems for months, if not years. By now, you've probably heard that it's designed to hit SCO's server with a denial of service attack, but what's much more interesting is how people have reacted to this news. Because the virus will attack SCO, some actually think it's a good thing, which is absolutely ridiculous. Slowing down the entire internet to make a stupid point about a lawsuit (where the company has been shooting itself in the foot all along) doesn't do much to help. Though, there is the amusing suggestion that maybe SCO released this themselves to generate sympathy and give them more excuses for not unveiling the disputed code. Still, the most interesting thing to me (which hasn't received much attention), is that this virus also was programmed to avoid being sent to federal agencies, military addresses, or security software companies. It sounds like they were hoping to stay a bit under the radar for a while - and somehow believed that this might allow it to spread further without getting recognized and stopped. In the meantime, I'm still wondering who the hell clicks on these attachments?

W32/Mydoom@MM spreads through e-mail. This worm can disguise the sender's address, a tactic known as spoofing, and may generate e-mail messages that appear to have been sent by Microsoft. Many of the addresses Mydoom uses are valid addresses that are being spoofed for malicious purposes. Technical information about the virus is available from antivirus vendors participating in the Microsoft Virus Information Alliance (VIA). The Mydoom worm is also known by the names Novarg, Shimg, and Mimail.R.
