Az Apple is Java malware támadás áldozatává vált
Nem csak a Facebook szívta be. Az Apple arról tájékoztatta a sajtót, hogy kisszámú Mac gépe Java plugin sebezhetőség kihasználásán keresztül malware támadás áldozatául esett. A közlemény szerint nem utal jel arra, hogy adatok jutottak volna ki a cégtől. A cég egy Java malware eltávolító eszközt ad ki, amely ellenőrzi a Mac rendszereket és eltávolítja a malware-t, ha az jelen van. A cég közleménye: Idézet: Apple has identified malware which infected a limited number of Mac systems through a vulnerability in the Java plug-in for browsers. The malware was employed in an attack against Apple and other companies, and was spread through a website for software developers. We identified a small number of systems within Apple that were infected and isolated them from our network. There is no evidence that any data left Apple. We are working closely with law enforcement to find the source of the malware. Since OS X Lion, Macs have shipped without Java installed, and as an added security measure OS X automatically disables Java if it has been unused for 35 days. To protect Mac users that have installed Java, today we are releasing an updated Java malware removal tool that will check Mac systems and remove this malware if found.
