This new variant, called "Code Rainbow" or "Nimda", runs executables on IIS servers and infects web pages on the affected site. The main threats appear to be (1) the worm spreads through the infection of web pages as well as direct probing of other sites, and (2) the high bandwidth the worm takes up - it launches a large number of attacks against other servers. In one hour, for example, we've logged about 500 attacks against our servers. We don't know where this one came from, but there have been reports of index pages displaying messages like "F*** USA Government", so this may be an attack by a foreign government or terrorist organization.
