Strange messages!
by Radford, Peter 29 Jul '04

29 Jul '04

Hi! Yesterday I received a message with the subject "[ifip-tc6] Returned mail: Data format error". Digging into one of its enclosures I found a reference to the MyDoom-O virus. I passed it on to one of our e-mail security guys. This is his response. The MyDoom-O virus uses spoofed "From" address and it may be constructed so as to appear as a bounce (i.e. returned mail). Full description of this MyDoom-O virus is available at: http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_127033.htm <http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_127033.htm> My analysis of the situation is that a PC with the address <mailto:ifip-tc6@informatik.rwth-aachen.de> ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de in its address book has became infected. The virus try to propagate itself using "MAILER-DAEMON < noreply(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de <mailto:noreply@informatik.rwth-aachen.de> >" as the spoofed "From" address and sent a copy of itself to the mailing list <mailto:ifip-tc6@informatik.rwth-aachen.de> ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de with the subject "[ifip-tc6] Returned mail: Data format error". The server where the mailing list is on has virus protection and has disinfected the message. The disinfected message reached the list and subsequently everyone on the mailing list received a copy of this harmless disinfected message. Congratulations are due to RWTH for disinfecting the message. While there is no guarantee that the original message came from the PC of anyone on the TC6 mailing list, it might be worthwhile checking the state of your systems.

EWSN2005-CFP:2nd European Workshop on Wireless Sensor Networks (EWSN)
by Wenye Wang 27 Jul '04

27 Jul '04

We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ********************************************************************* * EWSN 2005 * * * * 2nd European Workshop on Wireless Sensor Networks (EWSN) * * * * Istanbul, Turkey * * January 31 - February 2, 2005 * * * * http://www.ewsn.org * * * * Call For Papers * ********************************************************************* Scope of EWSN 2005: =================== Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are fast emerging as a new sensing paradigm based on the collaborative effort of large number of sensors deployed close to or inside the phenomenon to be observed, and have the potential of providing diverse services to numerous applications. The realization of WSNs require intensive technical research efforts especially on energy efficient scalable wireless ad hoc communication protocols due to their unusual application requirements and unique constraints. Additionally, WSNs are further evolving from simple data transportation networks to functionally rich distributed systems such that the tasks of event sensing and acting upon the phenomenon can be collectively realized in an autonomous manner by sensor and actuator nodes. The objective of this workshop is to bring together researchers from different backgrounds ranging from hardware to applications, to create a forum where cross-layer integration, novel solutions for specific problems, and the future development of WSN functionalities can be discussed. We encourage contributions describing innovative work on WSN. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Hardware for WSN: transceiver concepts, wakeup radio, antenna design, system integration, process and cost of manufacturing, battery technology, energy scavenging * Communication protocols: MAC and link layer problems, routing and transport protocols tailored for WSN, redundancy, data aggregation, and mobility support; gateways to fixed Internet; providing functionalities like localization and synchronization * Source coding techniques appropriate for WSN to support data fusion * Middleware for WSN: Configuration and installation support, lookup of available functionalities, group communication, distributed algorithms in WSN, harmonizing node-centric and data-centric addressing, integrating WSN in middleware architectures like .NET * Security: primitives for appropriate cryptographic protocols, secure system engineering * Applications of WSN: novel applications and their requirements such as medicine, environment control, etc.; experiences with real-world applications * What part will WSNs play in realizing the visions of ubiquitous computing & communication and Ambient Intelligence. * Prototypes, field studies, and testbeds: novel sensor node prototypes, measurements within sensor network testbeds * Modeling of WSN: models for WSN load/applications, mobility or channel models For further information, please contact the co-chairs via: info(a)ewsn2005.org Important Dates: ================ Submission deadline: September 3, 2004 Notification of acceptance: December 6, 2004 Camera-ready version: December 24, 2004 EWSN 2005 Conference: January 31 - February 2, 2005 Submission Details: =================== The workshop will only accept for review original papers that have not been previously published and are not currently under review by another conference or journal. All submissions will be handled electronically via EDAS: http://edas.info Manuscripts must be formatted according to the IEEE single-space double-column standard conference format, except the font size, which must be 11 pt. The maximum length of the manuscript is 12 pages, including text, figures and references. All submissions must be in PDF or PostScript format. Use of LATEX for typesetting is strongly recommended.
