An Internet worm cobbled together from generally available hacking tools
has compromised hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Linux servers by using two
well-known security flaws in applications set up during the default
installation of Red Hat Linux software.
Now, comes the question: is Linux Mandrake vulnerable to this Internet Worm?
If not, Mandrake should make a press release and send it to C-Net news, IMHO.
By the way, you can post your comments related to this article (What's your
take? section) on the same web page. may be, somebody from Mandrake team can
post comment/opinion?
