Recent Worms: A Survey and Trends
Overview This paper presents a broad overview of recent worm activity. Virus information repositories, such as the Network Associates' Virus Information Library, contain over 4500 different entries (through the first quarter of 2003). While many of these entries are interesting, a great number of them are now simply historical and a large percentage of them are completely derivative in nature. However, these virus information repositories are the best source of material on the breadth of malicious code, including worms. This paper is meant to provide worm researchers with a high-level roadmap to the vast body of virus and worm information.
