Sadmind
# Sadmind

The Sadmind worm was a computer worm which exploited vulnerabilities in both Sun Microsystems' Solaris (Security Bulletin 00191) and Microsoft's Internet Information Services (MS00-078), for which a patch had been made available seven months earlier. It was discovered on May 8, 2001.

The worm defaced web servers with a message against the United States government and the anti-Chinese cracking group PoizonBOx.
