The Morris worm is the first known cyberattack in history. Oddly enough, it wasn't meant to be malicious: a mistake in the code caused the software to go rogue. Here's how it happened.

In fairness, it is not "just booting". The screenshot shows exim and an unattended-upgrades script started up.
The world has still yet to shake the idea that every single server in the normal case needs a standalone, monolithic, local queue/delivery, mail system running; it seems.
I wonder why systemd-timesyncd has a larger VIRT value than anything else there.

On this day in #1988, the #MorrisWorm infected 10% of the #Internet within 24 hours — worm slithered out and sparked a new era in #cybersecurity
The Internet contracted worms a year before the World Wide Web was even a thing.
The pioneering Morris worm #malware wasn’t made with malice, says an FBI retrospective on the “programming error.” It was designed to gauge the size of the Internet, resulting in a classic case of unintended consequences.

On November 2, 1988, the Morris Worm became the first major computer virus to spread across the Internet. What began as a graduate student’s “experiment” quickly spiraled out of control, taking down much of the early Internet and costing millions in cleanup. It also gave rise to one of cybersecurity’s most important realizations: even well-intentioned code can cause catastrophic damage in a connected world.
To learn more, 𝙁𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙮 𝘽𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙂𝙤𝙚𝙨 𝙋𝙝𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 by Scott Shapiro, a #CyberCanonHoFCandidate, covers the #MorrisWorm as one of its five infamous hacks. See our review ➡️ https://tinyurl.com/r2b3zc2u
💥And as a bonus, many may not be aware that 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙪𝙘𝙠𝙤𝙤'𝙨 𝙀𝙜𝙜 also contains an interesting perspective on the Morris Worm. A year after astronomer Cliff Stoll's spy tracking journey, he was one of many admins around the country who were investigating the Morris Worm live as it was spreading through the night. Cliff writes about this experience in the book's epilogue, where he discovers that the author of the worm was actually the son of NSA's Chief Scientist, Robert Morris, whom Cliff worked with in relation to his international hacker sleuthing a year earlier.

Avevo letto The Cuckoo's Egg in inglese, un super classico per nerd, ed essendo una bella storia, mi chiedevo perche' nessuno lo avesse ristampato in italiano dal 1990.
Poi l'ho comprato sul noto sito di aste online e ho capito, era colpa del demone 'indica' che traboccava -

Today marks the 35th anniversary of the Morris Worm. It was a research project supposed to see how big the internet was... but it accidentally took down 10% of it. Oops!
