Bagle worm status + more blocking information



Although some AV firms web pages still call this a "not so serious" threat, the latest checks and cross-checks between vendors which are members of TH-Research (The Trojan Horses Research Mailing List) conclude that this is a serious Outbreak.

I believe new threat levels will be posted tomorrow morning, but it is
no longer a *possible* outbreak, it is BIG.


New information on the worm:

Status of the web pages this worm tries to connect to is still unclear.

Some vendors report it downloading a certain Trojan, but we see no information on that so far since the web pages status is still unclear, as mentioned.

Mcafee also reports it listening on port 6777.

The worm tries to connect to the following hacked box: 151.201.0.39.

Finally now all AV products "speak" of this worm.
Response times for detecting/cleaning/webpages updates were not so good.

As I mentioned earlier, Kaspersky and The Cleaner (MooSoft) were the noticeable exceptions.

FYI.
