W32.Blaster.Worm is a worm that exploits the DCOM RPC vulnerability (described
in Microsoft
Security Bulletin MS03-026) using TCP port 135. The worm targets only
Windows 2000 and Windows XP machines. While Windows NT and Windows 2003 Server
machines are vulnerable to the aforementioned exploit (if not properly patched),
the worm is not coded to replicate to those systems. This worm attempts to
download the msblast.exe file to the %WinDir%\system32 directory and then
execute it. The worm has no mass-mailing functionality.
