Around 7pm, the attacks started coming much faster, with one compromised host about every minute. We suspect this exploit has been repackaged as a worm.
As we have done in the past with aggressive worm attacks, we have blocked ports 135, 139, and 445 at the borders until we can get a firm handle on this. For the time being, some Windows services will not function outside of campus.
We will keep 3-DOWN updated, and post information here as seems useful.
Thank you for your patience.
-Bob Mahoney, for security@mit.edu
