Re: [PLUG] Chinese state hackers - new linux malware

[Fred Stluka via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

Jeff,

Any idea how this attack gets in to a Linux server?  Or is it only
a threat once it has broken in through some other exploit?  Also,
any easy way to scan a system to see if it's there?  I didn't see
answers to these questions at the link you posted, and didn't
easily google answers either.

Thanks!
--Fred
