    TrendLabs has received a number of reports from two major companies
    describing attacks via port 1434 that are attributed to this malware.
    
    This DDoS attack uses a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to
    create a denial of service condition between two Microsoft SQL servers. It
    affects systems running Microsoft SQL Server 2000.

    Having a big number of connections on UDP/1434 from a random IPs in
    Internet on
    a different networks. One hour ago (22:00 PST) one server in colo space
    started to initiate
    a hundreds of connection per second to diff. hosts on Internet to port
    UDP/1434 (isolated).
