That list of IP addresses is from Tuesday. I know of a number of machines that were compromised that were not on that list. I can only imagine what the number has climbed to since Tuesday.

......The quite reliable hacker tracker attrition.org is reporting that nearly nine thousand machines had been auto-defaced by the sadmind/IIS worm as of Tuesday, making it one of the most effective little scripts ever loosed on the Net.......

Quite. However, since this is NANOG you missed the most interesting parts: "Attrition has posted the IPs of all the boxes known to have been hit..." "What's ironic here is that the worm exploits two separate holes which were reported and patched ages ago. Call it proof-of-concept that sysadmins spend an awful lot of time on activities other than absorbing security bulletins."
