Warning: Virus Found In Jdk 1.6.0_05

[kalpik]

Just realised one thing! Where did you get 6u5? The latest is 6u3! Download from here: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/?intcmp=1281

The filename is: jdk-6u3-linux-i586.bin as i said, you downloaded the RPM version whose filename is jdk-6u3-linux-i586-rpm.bin

The direct link to the file is: http://192.18.108.216/ECom/EComTicke...linux-i586.bin

propagandas by disgruntled AV companies esp Kaspersky FUD about *NIX needing AV's
even rkhunter et al will not help finding yet to find custom rootkits!.

i got 6u5 from a site which has something about Tomcat JSP parser. i was trying that but i got bored out. So left it.



but 6u5 download URL was something related to SUN (don't remember).

Indeed...but it's much better at finding new rootkits than your typical user =) Point taken, though...rkhunter and the like can use heuristics to look for rootkit-like activity (hiding seemingly harmless files, etc...), but custom/bleeding edge stuff will always be a step ahead given the nature of the game.

And just as a side note, if you piss off the wrong person (i.e. one capable of writing a custom rootkit and exploiting your machine to install it), no amount of software is going to help... heh
