iframe attack
Hello,
There is a bug discovered in IIS which is being exploited by hackers and they insert iframe tags in the websites as well as sql databases. The exploit has already infected over half a million websites around the world and I am sure a lot of our friends here might have faced the same in their servers. The exploit itself does not harm the server, but some of the iframe tags contain javascripts called from other websites which hogs the memory of the visitor's computer. In some cases, it also gathers important data from the user's computers. Microsoft is already working on the same. Once their investigation is completed, they will come out with a hotfix or a service pack.
Well, my main concern was whether HC is securely coded to avoid this from getting attacked. The last thing we want is to find HC being attacked with the similar hacks. I would suggest HC to verify the application and make sure that it is safe from all such attacks.
