Yes, It sounds like a  script kiddies  compromise with worm infection too.

There are groups of Romanian IRC Script Kiddies  rooting   RedHat  7.3  
servers all over the world for quite a long time.
Is there any of this RedHat 7.3 server running wu-ftpd ftp server or a 
web server with https support?

Do you have any information on what services/ which flaws are exploited
and whether RH 7.3 boxes are still vulnerable to those exploits if
updated with all updates from the Fedora Legacy Project?

Cheers,
Juri
