are reporting that a worm is starting to exploit the Solaris Telnet 0-day vulnerability.
From the itnews article: By adding simple text to the Telnet command, Ullrich explained that the system will skip asking for a user name and password. If the systems are installed out of the box, they automatically come Telnet-enabled."
