Not just Rouge apps, it's much more widespread: other colors such
as magenta, mauve, fuschia, and even the extremes of pink and
purple can also be impacted.

   What's the infection vector?  URL Link?  Rouge Facebook app?

       Hi all.

       There's a facebook (possibly worm) something malicious
sending fake
       messages from real users (friends).

       The sample also has a remote drop site (verified by someone
who shall
       remain nameless).

       This is possibly zlob, not verified. Thanks Nick
Bilogorskiy for his help.

       Infection sites seen so far are on .pl domains.

       The AV industry will soon add detection.
       Facebook's security folks are very capable, so I am not
worried on that
       front.

       It's not that we didn't expect this for a long time now,
but...
       Be careful. Some users know to be careful in email.. but
not on facebook.

       Note: unlike 2003 when we called everything a worm and the
90s when
       everything was a virus--this is a bot which also
spreads/infects on facebook.

              Gadi.
