Another vulnerability to the Windows Operating system. This one uses an exploit to the RPC endpoint mapper and it affects Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
Reportedly, you know you have it when "......a 60 second shutdown timer pops up on your screen" but by then it may be too late.
Fortunately, the Evil Empire (Micro$oft) has released a patch for it, that can be downloaded here The patch only works on Windows 2000 and Windows XP. This patch was first released in March of 2003, however, the Blaster Worm is making it's way around the internet because many people have not been applying their patches.
[rant]okay, we all hate to sit around and download large files, unless they are pictures of Slug events, however, most of these patches plug holes to the Windows OS.....really can't stress enough to keep your patches updated on your PC. And I can't stress the importance of updating your Anti-Virus application on a regular basis (at least twice a week). And for you broadband users out there, I HIGHLY recommend a firewall (either hardware or software). If you have questions, or want recommendations, post something in the Tech Forum and several of us will provide many recommendations.[/rant]
If you are already effected with the Blaster Worm (also known as the Lovsan worm), a removal tool can be found here. This site from Symantec also provides more information on this worm.
Posted by jailbird at August 12, 2003 11:50 AM in Tech | TrackBack1) I was hit at home on an XP machine that did not have a firewall, and no anti-virus software. How fun is that? then...
2) I also managed to get a 1/2 day off of work because we saw it pop up at work and it attacked our domain controlers (didn't infect them, but played havic with srvhost.exe) for about 5 hours. I spent from 2am to 7am trying to keep the brewery in between the ditches so all you fuckers could have beer in 28 days.
Send thank you checks payable to me.
