Garrett pointed us at this blog post: http://seattlewireless.net/~casey/?p=13 which discusses an interesting.... feature of the Kodack EasyShare Wireless Picture Frames. The frames use a site called FrameChannel to read an RSS feed consisting of anything you would like which is pulled down and then displayed. The catch is that the feeds are public and easily discoverable. At this point, when I looked through a handful of possible feeds it appears that they have nothing but the default images available, which suggests that it may have been taken offline at least for the moment. The comments for the post include a lovely example script for bruteforcing all possible URLs for the frames.

We've had a report (thanks Tom!) of a java applet exploiting CVE-2008-5353 (http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-5353) as part of a web drive-by attack. While PoC has been around for a long time for this, this is the first time I've heard of it being used in the wild for a general attack. If anyone else has seen this, we'd be interested to hear about it.

The applet is already being detected by some A/V packages according to VirusTotal: https://www.virustotal.com/analisis/d4f5bcc9acecb2f53a78313fc073563de9fc4f7045dd8123a23a08f926a3974d-1262270360

As we get more details on what it does, we'll update this entry with it.

UPDATE: Minnie Mouse was kind enough to write and let us know that exploits for this vuln apparently are available and included in the LuckySploit, Liberty and Fragus kits. In at least one case the exploit was a recent addition
