Description linuxadvocate 1999-04-19 05:34:59 UTC 
Unfortunately, I'm not sure the problems is in tcp-wrappers,
but that's as close as I can get.  Above URL describes what
happened.  http://gtoft.dynip.com/worm/worm.tar is the worm
after it infected my system.

I think it is important to note that SuSE Linux 5.3 was
unaffected by this worm.
