IIS Servers Experience Massive Cyber Attack
A massive cyber-attack is targeting vulnerable Internet Information Server based Web pages by redirecting visitors to the site toward one hosting malicious code, and it's growing rapidly. When Panda Security first noted the infestation, it put the number of infected IIS servers at 282,000. Less than a day later, security firm F-Secure wrote its own blog entry, putting the infestation at more than 500,000. The worst part of it all is that these infestations are not in seamy Web sites, they are taking place in legitimate Web pages. An IFRAME redirects the user to another page, where identity-stealing malware is downloaded onto their computer. So even users who think they are staying clean are not safe.
