Worm Reports on MySpace

Security researchers at Websense Security Labs report on a worm that is exploiting a bug on MySpace, along with the Apple QuickTime player's support of Javascript, to infect webpages on MySpace. After the infection, links on a MySpace profile may get replaced with links to phishing sites. If you see an empty QuickTime video, or it looks like your links have been changed, you may have been infected. See http://www.websense.com/securitylabs/alerts/alert.php?AlertID=708 for more.
