Attaque en cours
Linux est assez résistant, mais l'utilisateur est toujours aussi exposé aux attaques sociales. Et en voici un exemple vécu personnellement très récemment : j'ai reçu un mail soi-disant de la Barclays. Ils m'informent que des mails suspects circulent. Et que justement ils ont amélioré leurs serveurs SSL pour une meilleure sécurité. Ils mettent donc un lien vers la Barclays. Or ce lien fait arriver en réalité sur un autre site.
Le site d'arrivée est mrplumbing.us. Il redirige sur spider.nghsecure.com qui affiche "This Account Has Been Suspended. Please contact the billing/support department as soon as possible".
Utilisant un navigateur spécial et regardant le contenu des paquets TCP/IP échangés, je ne risquais pas grand chose. Mais que vous serait-il arrivé si vous aviez été membre de la Barclays ? Et n'oubliez pas que d'autres banques bien françaises ont été la cible de ce genre d'attaque.
Donc une règle simple : ne cliquez pas sur les liens proposés. Et réglez votre client de messagerie pour ne pas exécuter de code de façon automatique. Si vous ne savez pas le faire, vous pouvez toujours installer Mozilla Thunderbird [1] qui offre une sécurité par défaut meilleure que Outlook Express. Mais la meilleure sécurité, c'est vous !
