Praetorian503 Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Description: First of all we love SpeedTest.net. Even with its Flash-based War Games effects, it’s still our goto site when investigating slow network connections. That’s why we were a little taken aback when we discovered an Invincea blog post noting that our beloved site being involved in exploiting visitors using one of the recent Java vulnerabilities. The main theme behind the Invincea post wasn’t necessarily their browser sandboxing product per se (although it does look helpful) but more on emphasizing “that the highest concentration of online security threats are in fact legitimate destinations visited by mass audiences.”In the detailed post Eddie Mitchell analyzes the attack on SpeedTest.net. One of the key findings was that the popular site didn’t actually host any Java exploit code but simply redirected visitors to another site that did.Source : - https://www.novainfosec.com/2013/02/05/speedtest-net-pushing-java-exploit/Disclaimer: We are a infosec video aggregator and this video is linked from an external website.
