Title: Code Red Warn
Post by: Alexie on August 11, 2001, 04:15:07 PM

Code Red Warn is a Perl script that tries to address the main problem with the Code Red worm, being that most people don't know they've been hit. It does this by watching Apache logfiles, and sending a "You've been hit" e-mail when a Code Red infected site first sends an attack.

NB: I think this one is a good idea..

I've been using for the past 12 hrs the follow java application from (http://www.dynwebdev.com/codered/). I've had to do some funky ipforwarding, but seems to be working.  Since I didn't have any luck installing Java JRE on e-smith I forward any attempts to access my IP directly to my windows machine and have it deal with the attacks and send the offending IIS a message. Out of 100 hits I've been able to send back 30 messages.

If the perl script from the above could do something  in the same way as the java app, it would really get their attention. Since it's alittle harder to guess if they are using any of the defind user names for emails.

Any idea why I'm getting the following error when trying to run the script?

Looks like your script is being executed as a bash script, not a perl script.

The script does have the following at the begining.:

#!/usr/bin/perl
