摘要
With the development and the application of many popular peer-to-peer （P2P） systems such as eMule and BitTorrent, worms probably employ the features of these P2P networks to put them at risk. Some features, such as the local routing table and the application routing mechanism, are helpful to quickly distribute the P2P worms into the networks. This paper aims to give a comprehensive survey of P2P worms. The definition and the classification of P2P worms are discussed firstly. Then, the research and development of P2P worms, including experimental analysis, propagation modeling, and defensive approaches, are addressed and analyzed in detail.
