DailyMotion Hosting Malvertising Leading to Fake AV Attack

Video-sharing site DailyMotion is in the throes of an attack where it is serving malicious ads redirecting users to a fake AV scam. DailyMotion attracts 17 million monthly visitors and is the 95th-ranked website according to Alexa. This is the second malvertising attack reported this week. Earlier, Yahoo sites in Europe were serving ads that dropped an iframe sending users to domains hosting the Magnitude exploit kit, which then seeded victims with a host of financial malware. The attack was reported to Yahoo, but an estimated 27,000 infections per hour took place.
