New variant of Doomjuice found Posted by Mikko @ 10:57 GMT

A new variant of Doomjuice worm was found two hours ago. This one also attacks against www.microsoft.com - like Doomjuice.A.

The worm attacks www.microsoft.com via http protocol like Doomjuice.A, but now it sets random HTTP headers to make it more difficult to filter out the attack traffic:
