Wired To Publish Slammer Source Code

Juan Carlos writes "Wired Magazine is going to publish the source code to the SQL Slammer worm in its next issue, due Tuesday, along with some kind of play-by-play of the worm's rapid spread. I actually think this is a neat idea for an article. But the fact is, the disassembly of Slammer (aka Sapphire) has been available on the Net since late January -- just hours after the worm started to spread."

    Insightful my ass. They are publishing source code for the virus. It IS the same thing. It may not be the ORIGINAL source but it is the source for the virus.
