[wpkg-users] Remove javascript which is being used to redirect browsers in China

[Justin Bennett]

http://wpkg.org/my.js doesn’t exist. Just as http://wpkg.org/Anyfile.js doesn’t exist.

The page is redirecting based on the web server’s response to have no page found.

Might have something to do with this recent spam being posted - http://wpkg.org/index.php?title=Talk:Testimonials&action=history

As you may be aware, WPKG is being used in an exploit which replaces copies of the Facebook Connect SDK with the script at

http://wpkg.org/my.js

this causes traffic on many sites to be redirected to http://wpkg.org

http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/33xc0u/wpkgorg_currently_undergoing_possible_attack_from/

If anyone on this mailing list has access to the domain, or a way to contact the administrator, would it be possible to blank that file? Many people in China would be very grateful :)

Matt
