A new rootkit that uses the master boot record (MBR) to hide itself has been discovered in China and is being used to install an online game password stealer. The bootkit is installed on the computer by a trojan downloader distributed from a Chinese adult site and is detected by Kaspersky as Rookit.Win32.Fisp.a. Once executed, the rootkit makes a copy of the old MBR and replaces the sectors with its own code which includes an encrypted driver. When the computer boots, the malicious code executes and restores the original MBR so that Windows can load normally. It then uses hooks to replace the fips.sys system driver with a malicious one. "It should be noted that the driver fips.sys is not required for the operating system to run correctly, so the system won't crash when it is replaced," says Kaspersky Lab expert Vyacheslav Zakorzhevsky. The driver scans loaded processes to determine if they belong to one of over a dozen antivirus programs and prevent them from running...

Passwords from over 3,000,000 user accounts were apparently set to "password" late last night in a wide-spread hack that affected hundreds of news, retail and Web 2.0 sites.

Several sites have reported that they are taking steps to protect compromised accounts. In addition, many sites are creating a new rule to ban using the word "password" as a password. Users are reacting fiercely to the hack but even more so to the ban many sites are putting on one of the world's most popular passwords. Online riots are to be expected.
