More security news<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

On Nov. 2, 1988, I was working at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center<\/a> in the data communications branch. Everything was fine. Then, our internet servers running SunOS and VAX\/BSD Unix slowed to a stop. It was a bad day.<\/p>\n

We didn’t know it yet, but we were fighting the Morris Internet Worm<\/a>. Before the patch was out, 24 hours later, 10 percent of the internet was down, and the rest of the network had slowed to a crawl. We were not only facing the first major worm attack, we were seeing the first distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack.<\/p>\n

Unlike the hundreds of thousands of hackers that would follow, Robert Tappan Morris, then a graduate student at Cornell, wasn’t trying to “attack” the internet’s computers. He thought his little experiment would spread far more slowly and not cause any real problems. He was wrong.<\/p>\n

Well, that’s what he said afterward. I’m also not at all certain that that was the case.<\/p>\n

Consider, the Morris worm had three attack vectors<\/a>: sendmail, fingerd, and rsh\/rexec. It also used one of the now-classic attack methods: Stack overflow in its attack.<\/p>\n

It was also one of the first attack programs to use what we’d call a dictionary attack with its list of popular passwords. The passwords and other strings hid in the Worm’s binary by XORing<\/a>, a simple encryption method.<\/p>\n

\n<\/section>\n

Morris also tried to hide his tracks. He started the worm from a MIT computer. It hid its files by unlinking them after trying to infect as many other servers as possible.<\/p>\n

Even without a malicious payload, the Worm did serious damage. Infected systems quickly did nothing but trying to spread the worm, thus slowing them down to a crawl. Some, most of them running SunOS<\/a>, a Unix variant and the ancestor of Solaris<\/a>, crashed under the load.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Morris, who included code to keep the worm from spreading too fast, had realized he was no longer in control. Morris called a friend — who subsequently said Morris “seemed preoccupied and appeared to believe that he had made a ‘colossal’ mistake.'”<\/a><\/p>\n

He had indeed. Thanks to efforts led by Eugene “Spaf” Spafford, then an assistant professor of computer science at Purdue University and current editor-in-chief of Computers and Security<\/em><\/a>, the Worm was conquered.<\/p>\n

Before the Worm was finished, it successfully attacked about 6,000 of the 1988 internet’s 60,000 servers. In the aftermath, DARPA created the first CERT\/CC (Computer Emergency Response Team\/Coordination Center)<\/a> at Carnegie Mellon University to deal with future security attacks.<\/p>\n

But the Worm’s biggest legacy to date was that it started a wave after wave of computer and internet attacks. If Robert Morris hadn’t done it, someone else would have. But, regardless, today we live in a world where a day doesn’t go by without a serious attack.<\/p>\n
