I thought that maybe some of you guys might just find these links [1,2] informative or somehow useful. It explains a little bit how the worm functions and also provides you with some detail on how to protect yourself ...

Thats nifty. The way it spreds is pretty simple but the fact that its all sql. Awesome, Now theres a way to hide a worm. I think the authers of those links are right, its been proven it can be done. I think some one will finish the job, I wonder if you could have one worm that would work on pg/my/ms/oracle. I mean most of them come with default ports and usernames I do beleave. All the more reason to not have default passwords and to firewall.
