Re: New malware to infect IIS and from there jump to clients

With the current (in)security of most (if not all) ISP
that provide ASP.Net or ASP Classic shared hosting
services, all the attakers need to do is to get an
hosting account in a shared hosting server (trivial)
and infect these websites from the inside.

I haven't heard of any new IIS exploit (which doesn't
mean that they don't exist), but compromizing the IIS
box from the inside (as seen by the interland story) is
probably how this happened.

BTW, do you know which ISP hosts the 'compromized'
websites?

Just a reminder. This isn't the first time this has
happened:
