WMF Virus

[MrDude]

I reccomend you all check your sites, run a virus scan, patch your systems.

A fairly large forum had lots of its users infected by somehow having a frame to the wmf virus on its page, The staff have now removed it but are unsure how it got there.

i believe this is phpbb thing, you need to go into your forum admin and disable html

An unidentifed source came to me with this one - and it appears to be valid. There is a serious threat for users of phpBB that have "Allow HTML" set to yes. If you have "Allow HTML" set to yes in Admin, Forums, Configuration, TURN IT OFF.

More will be posted soon I am sure, but for now, TURN IT OFF.
