More SoBig comments, and Whack-A-Scam, Ultr@VNC Vulnerability
Alex Shipp of Message Labs email further comments on the SoBig.F
resurrection. Alex pointed out that their statistics show no overall
increase in SoBig.F emails - instead, just normal fluctuation in the daily
statistics.
----
It's been pointed out that while the trojan-loaded website EV1.NET has
been shut down, in typical whack-a-mole fashion, a new one has already
popped up at chwolter.com. If you happen to see any more of these pop up,
it's probably worth mentioning them.
----
Ultr@VNC[1] is a VNC variation for administrating Windows based platforms
remotely. It supports Windows logins and access rights - however, today
Secure Network Operations released a new security escalation example (you
have to already be logged into VNC) and Ultr@VNC has not been patched yet
to fix the problem. A quick fix (via commenting out some lines and
recompiling) was mentioned in the release on BugTraq.
(Mentioned because I know a number of Windows admins who make use of some
of the VNC variants for remote server configuration. Since it's unknown
when the patch will be released at this time, )
