Threatpost: A self-replicating worm is spreading among a number of different Linksys home and small business routers.
Researchers at the SANS Institute reported the outbreak yesterday and have not been able to determine whether there is a malicious payload or if the worm connects to a command and control server. Johannes B. Ullrich, chief technology officer at SANS said the worm appears at the moment to be doing little more than scanning for other vulnerable routers and seeding itself.
