Attackers probing for vulnerable Windows servers
Attackers are probing for Windows servers running Trend Micro Inc.'s ServerProtect antivirus software, researchers warned.

port 5168, which is related to the remote procedure call service in
ServerProtect. "This may indicate an ongoing mass-scanning and
exploitation attempt trying to exploit vulnerable systems for the newly
disclosed vulnerabilities," said Symantec analyst Pukhraj Singh in an
alert issued to corporate customers.
