Wormtrack is a network IDS that helps detect scanning worms on a local area network by monitoring anomalous ARP traffic. This allows detection of scanning threats on the network, without having privileged access on a switch to set up a dedicated monitor port, nor does it require a constant updating of the rules engine to address new threats.

eb272c6ff1c00e0c3cdc8c49150c4be4This Metasploit module exploits a format string vulnerability in the LPRng print server. This vulnerability was discovered by Chris Evans. There was a publicly circulating worm targeting this vulnerability, which prompted RedHat to pull their 7.0 release. They consequently re-released it as "7.0-respin".

1d3642adf9dab516eb15d202c3fc7ba4vthrottle is an implementation of an SMTP throttling engine for Sendmail servers, based upon M. Williamson's mechanisms, as described in his 2003 Usenix Security paper. It allows the administrator to control how much email users and hosts may send, hindering the rapid spread of viruses, worms, and spam. Exceptions can be made using a whitelist mechanism, which can be generated manually or with the included tool vmeasure.

13b59cf5acd83feffb4917c2f463dfe3Sysmask is a security package for Linux systems that can prevent arbitrary malicious codes from causing permanent damage. It protects the system against daemon exploits and user accounts against viruses and worms, whether known or unknown, without requiring the recompilation of existing software.
065a77e7fef6c08ad0d590c084610ab2Nepenthes is a low interaction honeypot like honeyd or mwcollect. Low Interaction Honeypots emulate _known_ vulnerabilities to collect information about potential attacks. Nepenthes is designed to emulate vulnerabilities worms use to spread, and to capture these worms. As there are many possible ways for worms to spread, Nepenthes is modular.
