FYI...from the Internet Storm Center:

- http://isc.sans.org/diary.php?date=2004-05-14
"...Please patch your Symantec/Norton firewall products
...There are several vulnerabilities in Symantec/Norton firewall products. Exploit code is currently being developed. If you run these products (even behind other firewalls), you are highly urged to apply the vendor patches. You may recall the worm "Witty" attacked a similar flaw in ISS products..."

Thanks for that. I put a similar notification up over at the BBR/DSLR Security Forum as a consequence. (Complete with attribution! Smile )
