Summary:
This event is generated when an exploited Internet Information Server (IIS) host attempts to perform a tftp download of the file admin.dll to infect the host with the nimda worm. 

--
Impact:
Administrator access.  A successful attack can allow remote execution of commands with administrator privleges.

--
Detailed Information:
The nimda worm uses multiple propagation methods.  One method exploits a victim Internet Information Server (IIS) using a unicode directory traversal attack to execute commands on the target server.  An attempt is made to execute a tftp download of the file admin.dll from the infected attacking host to the victim server.  The admin.dll file is a copy of the nimda worm that is activated on the newly infected victim server.  This event is triggered if the IIS server is exploitable and the tftp transfer is attempted.

--
Affected Systems:
Hosts running Microsoft IIS 4.0 and 5.0.

--
Attack Scenarios:
The worm will attempt to remotely exploit a unicode directory vulnerability to infect an IIS server by executing a tftp download of the nimda worm.

--
Ease of Attack:
Simple.  

--
False Positives:
None Known.

--
False Negatives:
None Known.

--
Corrective Action:
Apply the appropriate patch referenced in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS00-078.
