WHID 2007-55: Malicious Code Infects Chinese Security Site
Date: 03 October 2007
Incident Type: Security Breach
WASC Threat Classification: unknown

Defacement are a dime a dozen this days, and are not normally reported by WHID. Even invisible defacements in which sites are changed in order to infect their clients with malicious code are becoming too common. But this time it is the site of a security organization, and not just any one, but China's internet security organization. So in the light of the hot debate about china as the source of all hacking, we think that this story has a value.
