Just two weeks after the release of exploit code for a critical (remotely exploitable) security hole in its Internet Explorer browser, Microsoft says a fix will be included in this month’s batch of Patch Tuesday updates. Microsoft has already issued an advisory to confirm the severity of the issue, which affects users of Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008. In all, Microsoft plans to release six security bulletins next Tuesday (December 8, 2009) to fix security flaws affected IE, Microsoft Office and the Windows operating system. Three of the six bulletins will be rated “critical,” Microsoft’s highest severity rating. A critical vulnerability could result in remote code execution if a user opens a rigged file or simply surfs to malicious Web site.
Microsoft urged customers to pay special attention to the IE update because of the availability of public exploit code and the fact that attackers could launch malware attacks to take complete control of a Windows machine running a vulnerable browser.

New ransomware attack blocks Internet access
Security researchers have stumbled upon a new piece of ransomware that blocks an infected computer from accessing the Internet until a fee is paid via SMS (text message).
According CA researcher Zarestel Ferrer, the ransomware file is bundled with a program called uFast Download Manager. Once a machine is infected, a message is posted in Russian (see image above) demanding a ransom under the guise of activating the uFast Download Manager application.
Here is a rough English translation:
Internet access is blocked due to violation of the
license agreement schedules of uFast Download Manager
You must activate your copy
Get a registration code by sending an SMS with the following
code fw0004199 to number 7122
In response you will receive an activation message.
Enter the activation message received from the SMS response ________
CA is offering an activation code generator for this particular ransomware variant.

The Koobface Web site offers a video posted by 'SantA'. The usual ruse of requiring a codec to watch the video is used, to encourage the user to install and run a file called setup.exe (SHA1:a2046fc88ab82abec89e150b915ab4b332af924a). This file is currently detected by 16 out of 41 antivirus products according to VirusTotal.

New Theme Hitman
papamike writes "It's been a while but I released my newest theme 'Hitman' today. This theme is a black and white combo with matching forums, I carried the Hitman 'look-and-feel' throughout the theme. The forums blend in well with the rest of the site.
Extra stuff:
- Hitman text file
- Streaming Hitman movie hidden behind the top table. There are instructions inside the READ ME.txt file that describes how to turn the movie on and off.
