For some reason all article links released pointed to the non-
existing url. Do they even test the source links being released...

Subject: [funsec] CA Web site hacked by malware authors

From Hack In The Box story:

"Part of security software vendor CA's Web site was hacked earlier this
week and was redirecting visitors to a malicious Web site hosted in
China.

Although the problem now appears to have been corrected, cached
versions
of some pages in the press section of CA.com show that earlier this
week
the site had been redirecting visitors to the uc8010.com domain, which
has been serving malicious software since late December, according to
Marcus Sachs, director of the SANS Internet Storm Center."
