zveloLABS™ detected malicious code on the foxsports.com website late yesterday. Hackers have once again increased their tally of well known websites recently exploited to serve dangerous content.
zveloLABS™ has been tracking compromised sites that host PageRank Bombs since 2008. The attacker hacks a site, but instead of putting exploits on the hacked site, they put links to other websites in order to boost the search result ranking on various search engines. Initially this was being used for ad sites, porn sites, and pharma fraud sites. Now, however, it is being used to boost the results of malicious sites, but with a new twist that targets Google users.
