RE: Apache Worm?

[Thor Larholm <Thor () jubii dk>]

I would say there's a big likely hood, if for no other reason than the
incentive - imagine Nimda or Code Red with double the amount of vulnerable
servers.

Just like we still have problems with unpatched IIS installations, we would
also get a reoccuring problem with unpatched Apache installations. Some
can't be easily upgraded, some are fresh installs from a just installed
distro, etc.

what would be the likely hood a cracker could turn this into a internet
worm, and what would the possible destruction be?  I'm aware still over 50%
of the webservers are running apache, but the diffrent distros might cause
somewhat of a problem. would it not?
