I think everybody is already aware of the new worm which is propagating acroos the Internet. However, thought I'd post a useful summary.
The worm exploits a vulnerability in Windows DCOM RPC subsystem. For patches, look at this MS Security Bulletin (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-026.asp)
Symantec is posting the ongoing results of their analysis of the worm here (https://tms.symantec.com/members/AnalystReports/030811-Alert-DCOMworm.pdf)
The ISS X-Force info on the worm is at: http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/alerts/id/150
The ISS X-Force info on the vuln is at: http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/alerts/id/147 (http://xforce.iss.net/xforce/alerts/id/147)
