RE: Did IDSes detect the SQL worm?

We saw it on both our Dragon (MS-SQL:REG-STACK--before Enterasys put out one specific to the worm) and Real Secure 
sensors (SQL_SSRP_StackBo).

Subject: Did IDSes detect the SQL worm?


Much has been made about the fact that the vulnerability exploited by 
the MS-SQL worm has been known about for six months.  So not only 
should users have been aware of it, but IDS vendors should have been 
aware of it.

Here is my question: Other than an IDS reporting an unusual amount of 
traffic to port 1434, did any report the specific nature of the attack?

In other words, did any IDS report that the packet appears to attack a 
vulnerability identified by CAN-2002-0649?

Thanks,

Todd
