Title: Recognition of repeatedly injected HTML.Exploit.CVE
Post by: cotnerc on May 24, 2019, 01:05:02 AM
Normal browsing behavior, with non-MS (ie *not* Edge or IE) product, results in recurrent browser cache occurrence of variants of this apparently common, apparently MS-targeting mal-code.  This is regularly discovered with another vendor's antivirus package.

My interests include the desire to identify injection source as well as nature of threat; is it possible for Avast family (incl. AVG) to include this recognition on-the-fly?

BTW, unrelated, here's a just-recognized threat location :
