With a newly developed ddos exploit, you can see that the 3306 port is disconnected from the sites, and all MySQL sites (Forum, Blog etc.) crashed. NetSol, a victim of this exploit, showed how dangerous the malware was by shutting down 300,000 sites. Exploit wrote a Turk, showed that MySQL server without disabling disable your site without damaging your server in seconds thousands of sites on the field Turkey. Measure: Change your MySQL port address and maximize your current firewall settings.
