Attacks spread malware with help from AppleInsiderBy Dan Goodin Posted in Malware, 16th December 2009 06:02 GMTMalware purveyors are exploiting web vulnerabilities in appleinsider.com, lawyer.com, news.com.au and a dozen other sites to foist rogue anti-virus on unsuspecting netizens.The ongoing attacks are notable because they use exploits based on XSS, or cross-site scripting, to hide malware links inside the URLs of trusted sites. That's something application security expert Mike Geide doesn't see often. As a result, people who expect to visit sites they know and trust are connected to a page that tries to trick them into thinking their computer is infected.
It would have been nice.... :'(
It doesn't need a sticky. The continued adding of new items always make it come back to the top.
