US Treasury Web sites hacked, serving malware
Three Web sites belonging to the U.S. Department of the Treasury have been hacked to attack visitors with malicious software, security vendor AVG says.
AVG researcher Roger Thompson discovered the issue Monday on three Web domains associated with the home page of the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing. As of late Monday, all three Web sites were still actively serving malicious software and the Bureau of Engraving and Printing Web site should be avoided until it’s clear that they’ve been cleaned up, Thompson said in an interview via instant message.
Although the Treasury Department could not be reached for comment, IT staff there appear to be aware of the problem. On Tuesday morning, all three sites had apparently been taken offline and were returning a “page not found” error.
Please. PLEASE. I don’t hate the government. The government just BEGS to be despised. WHAT a bunch of nincompoop idiots! Not only was this super-duper secure website hacked, but the malware REMAINED on the sites because the nincompoops couldn’t get it off! (Or didn’t want to get it off… after so many times, ya gotta wonder if they do this stuff on purpose?!).
