Code Red means there's ordsprog

Code Red means there's a framework for a worm out there right now that has proven its effectiveness to spread. All [virus writers] need is a new vulnerability.

The virus doesn't have any practical application -- it's classic proof-of-concept code, written to show that it is possible to create a cross-platform virus. However, our experience shows that once proof-of-concept code is released, virus writers are usually quick to take the code, and adapt it for their own use.

A virus infects files, which this does not do. It creates its own files. The way it crosses over could be seen by some as a worm-like feature but it does not spread any further like a worm.

When we start to see exploits surfacing, we know there will shortly be malicious code, ... We expect at least the MSDTC vulnerability to be used in a worm in the short term.

If we joined, we couldn't share any identifying information about MARA members, so if we found someone in the group publishing virus source code, or co-authoring articles with known virus writers, we couldn't divulge that information.

Although IM threats were down this month, companies need to be aware that we view this as a temporary lull in activity and that the threats are going to get more malicious and sophisticated with time. February saw the first ever worm spread over IM networks using the Apple OS X platform. This speaks to the increased sophistication and ways that virus writers are trying to develop worms for different networks and operating systems. Companies need to know that unless they currently have an IM security solution in place, they are leaving their networks open to security attacks.

We knew about this vulnerability a month before the worm emerged, ... If companies knew to scan even their perimeter machines, they could easily have seen this vulnerability and applied this patch and not be affected. I think what we're going to see is a new awareness around this and, as a result, new emphasis on planned vulnerability scanning so they have a fixed process.

We have read articles where anti-virus executives say that MARA has published virus source code. We believe that this may be libel. It is certainly not true: A couple of MARA members contributed to an article on the Dust virus (the first Pocket PC Trojan) last year that also had a separate, Part III written by a virus writer, in which he lists some proof-of-concept code. However, contrary to some reports, this was never published by MARA.

Writing a cross-platform worm is difficult because it limits you to functions that are available on both operating systems. You have to also code the virus in assembly to make it work without relying on any OS-specific function.

We've assigned it our 'High' rating, which means the vulnerability allows for code execution,

We don't have a spread of the virus, what we have is the introduction of the virus into countries of the European Union. The difference is that it's human activities, through commerce, through the market place, through the way we raise our poultry that we get disease spread. The fact that in Europe, in many countries, it's been picked up in migratory birds, is very, very relevant, it means that the European authorities -- Italy, Greece, Germany, Denmark, Austria -- are monitoring, doing active surveillance in the wild bird population.
