We have seen many of these iframe infections lately. It seems to the be the website infection dujour.

It could be a keylogger or it could also be a virus we’ve seen a lot of that sniffs the FTP traffic from the PC to the website. As you know, FTP transmits in plain text. So all data, including the username and password are easy to sniff in the traffic stream. This information is then sent to a server that takes that information, logs in to the site, modifies the code, then monitors it for any changes. If the malicious server detects any changes or missing malscripts, it tries to re-infect the website.

We’ve seen many reports of website owners complaining that part of their morning breakfast ritual is to re-upload their site. After changing the FTP password and scanning their PC and cleaning it, we recommend that all website owners move away from FTP and go to either SFTP or FTPS both of which encrypt their transmissions making it nearly impossible to sniff the FTP credentials.

Just thought you might like to pass that along to your readers as well.

Thank you.
