Microsoft: Worm Exploiting Networked Computers via HTTP
Microsoft informed in its most recent security bulletin that a worm dubbed Win32/Conficker.gen!A is messing around with computers across a network by exploiting a vulnerability in the Windows Server service, allowing remote code execution to take place while file sharing is enabled.
The worm apparently searches for Windows executable ‘services.exe’ and injects itself into it, copying itself in the Windows system folder as random .dll.
