Title: W32/VBNA-X worm spreads quickly through networks and removable media
Post by: Clive on November 30, 2012, 17:51

SophosLabs researchers have noticed a significant increase in the spread of malware we call W32/VBNA-X (among other names).

Several other vendors, including McAfee (W32/Autorun.worm.aaeb) and Symantec (W32.ChangeUp), have been alerting their customers as well. While the basic components of this malware have been around for some time, it has become considerably more aggressive in its latest iteration.
