MSN Korea Hacked !! Who Knows…
Hackers planted a password stealer on the news page of South Korea’s MSN which went undetected for many days.:tdown:
“Our alarms went off (Sunday). We noticed it was infected,” said Dan Hubbard, its senior security director.
The company finally learned about it and removed the nasty code. Microsoft confessed it removed the password-stealing software from the MSN site hours later. The hackers could have harvested stolen passwords from visitors to the MSN site for up to three days.:evil:
Thats the situation in South Korea, a leader in high-speed Internet users worldwide. On the otherside company was confident its English-language Web sites were not vulnerable to the same type of attack.:shock:
So after reading all this, I wanna know….How secure are Indian websites??:shock:

Did you mean to ask how secure WERE the Indian websites? I guess a lot of them might already be infacted without the knowledge of the admins/owners. Somebody might just be collecting some cool informations about people without anybody knowing it! Its a bloodshed out there.
Yes but nobody cares. Deep the moderator at thinkdigit forums who is a Server Administrator found a hack in Indiatimes shopping site and informed them to patch it.
They refused…Its still unpatched…U can read about dat and more flaws in indian sites on his blog at http://www.whoisdeep.com
Humm.. thats cool! I mean finding bugs in some third party site!
Those morons would not understand until its published on the front page of TOI.. oh wait! that too is never gonna happen!
Times of India will certainly not publish about the security holes in its own website, now will it?
