| New Worm - UDP 1434 - SQL Server Monitor?? I have just starting getting bombed with port scans to UDP port 1434 which is the SQL Server Monitor service. There are known vuls against this port so it looks like some is attacking on it and built a worm for it.

Anyone else seeing this traffic. It started here about 30 minutes ago.

 Link LoggerPremium,MVM join:2001-03-29 Calgary, AB kudos:3 | I am at the tail end of a development cycle so I'm out of the game for anything other then noticing this. If anyone has a honeypot, tune it to UDP port 1434 and see what is happening. Seems to be spreading rather quickly. Seems to have an across the board random IP generator as I only see single hits from any one system (unlike Code Red which used a weighted IP generation algo).

 sammysnakeNever Forget 911Premium join:2002-01-19 Salt Lake City, UT | reply to Link Logger A lot of the offending IP's are from the .edu domain but spread all over the place according to what ZoneLog is telling me from the hits I've been getting.

 woodwardXMission BroadbandVIP join:2000-12-28 Salt Lake City, UT | reply to Link Logger All at once this one invaded our colocation facility and infected most every IIS ans MS SQL server in there. DoS'd us right off the internet with about 80 GB of data within minutes until we blocked the port at the border and yanked a few cords.
This one could be really nasty. |

Nothing "mini" about it on our end. 
I do not administer these servers (these are colocations). If this is an old exploit, hasn't M$ SQL's server been patched to cover it?
Or was that just a silly question.... |

 | Re: New Worm - UDP 1434 - SQL Server Monitor?? Jeez I'm glad it's not just me, I was starting to get paranoid til I came here.
So, if you don't have sql server does this mean there is nothing to worry about.
if not, what's the best solution. Watch them all bounce off the router and firewall software, or should people be doing something more active. |

 abaez join:2002-11-17 Whittier, CA | reply to Link Logger If you don't have mysql you probably don't have to worry about getting infected. But the worm is wreaking havoc on everything. I ping 1000+ to almost every ip I try and my friends are the same. |

Here is a log of about the last 2 minutes. Seems i am also getting hits on this port! |

...should help, or do I really have no idea what I'm talking about ? How do you just say, all 1434 ignore ? Or doe the fact that the log says unrecognised mean it's already ignoring them ?
Many thanks from a panic station.  |

 PDXracerPremium join:2002-08-13 Grants Pass, OR | reply to Link Logger I cannot connect to ANY sites east of Chicago (I am in portland oregon)
Everything trying to route through texas, then timing out.
Can only get west coast based sites, and those are very slow loading right now.
Something big is happening |
