Snowman Attack Campaign Targets IE10 Zero-Day Bug

A new watering-hole attack targets a zero-day vulnerability in Internet Explorer 10. Security firm FireEye says it’s working with Microsoft to investigate the attacks. The gang behind what FireEye has dubbed the “Operation Snowman” attack campaign appears to have hacked into the VFW Website. The timing of the attack seems to have been designed to capitalize on the recent bad weather that’s hit Washington and beyond. Users can protect themselves by upgrading their browser to IE11 or installing the Microsoft EMET security utility.”]
