That's the return packet (probably a SYN-ACK) establishing the second half
of the connection -- ie when a client sends a SYN to a server to open a
connection, the server responds with a SYN-ACK that simultaneously
acknowledges the connection request and sets up the return half of the
conversation. This is why the next XPU (which will hopefully contain the
signatures for this worm) is being awaited so anxiously...

HI,

I am also facing the same problem, network sensors are capturing port 1433
events in a " Reverse Way" !!!

Here we are getting events with source port 80 and destination port 1433,
but in real the tcp connection was established in a reverse way ( ie source

port 1433 and destination port 80).

A fundamental mistake in the connection events entries ?

Regards
Rajesh
