Hacking: Second mass hack exposed

March 18th, 2008 Posted/Linked by Shanmuga

"Researchers at McAfee estimated that the attack has been active for roughly one week, and in that time frame has managed to place itself on roughly 200,000 web pages.

Most of the infected pages are running the phpBB forum software, said McAfee. The compromised pages are embedded with a Javascript file that links to the site hosting the attack." - Content courtesy of Second mass hack exposed - Security - iTnews Australia
