The link tries to download from popcows.net/main.php?page=d024eabc8c2bdbfc (70.32.97.205 / Media Temple, US) which is 404ing at the moment, however it is still worth blocking it as a precaution.

205.251.65.190 / skill.ee malware

There's some spam run or other active at the moment directing users to a legitimate hacked site and then a malware page at 205.251.65.190/showthread.php?t=34c79594e8b8ac0f (report here), hosted by Big Brain Host in the US.

The site tries to download a malicious executable from www.skill.ee/4Jw.exe but at the moment that is failing with a 401 error. skill.ee looks like another legitimate hacked site, a common pattern with this type of attack.

The malicious payload can be found on 216.119.142.235/showthread.php?t=34c79594e8b8ac0f (report here) hosted by A2 Hosting in the US.

Something evil on 85.17.222.80, lpicture.info and ghjvodka.info

Some sites appear to have been hit by a sophisticated multi-part injection attack that triggers only once per IP (so difficult to track down).

There are two injected elements, one is a .in site hosted on 85.17.222.80 [Leaseweb, Netherlands] which could be one of the following:

sds.vaselisa.in
dds.kiriloid.in
drf.yerevano.in
sddr.margarit.in
cd.fancyclu.in

There's a pretty inconclusive Wepawet report here but be assured that these domains have a malicious payload.

The second injection is a reference to lpicture.info which is hosted on 95.168.173.151, this is a Leasweb Germany IP address suballocated to inferno.name who appear to be a Serbian firm fronted in the UK. I strongly recommend blocking all their IP ranges (listed here) if you can. lpicture.info merely forwards to a malicious payload on ghjvodka.info (report here) and that in turn is listed on 37.59.198.55 (OVH, France) along with some other suspect looking sites that lead be to conclude that this IP address is worth blocking too:

ns2.deftheory.org
abcvodka.info
defvodka.info
ghjvodka.info
abcfree.info
ns1.abcfree.info
deffree.info
ghjfree.info
ns1.ghjfree.info
klmfree.info
opqfree.info
ns1.opqfree.info
rstfree.info
uvwfree.info
ns1.uvwfree.info
xyzfree.info
ns1.xyzfree.info
deflocal.info
ns1.deflocal.info
ghjlocal.info
klmlocal.info
noplocal.info
ghjseat.info
klmseat.info
ns1.klmseat.info

This malware seems to be quite good at avoid analysis. But if you can block these IPs then I strongly recommend that you block them.

Something evil on 82.211.45.81 and 82.211.45.82

82.211.45.81 (Accelerated IT Services GmbH, Germany) is another server with a bunch of subdomains of hacked GoDaddy accounts, apparently being used to deliver payloads from other sites that have a hacked .htaccess file.

82.211.45.0/24 doesn't appear to host anything at all apart from these malicious sites and is a good candidate to block.

The hacked GoDaddy accounts have been set to point everything except www. to the server on 82.211.45.81. Hacked domains on this server appear to be:

revolution-clan.com
banknewsdirectories.com
psychicwireless.com
greenbankingemagazine.com
greenbankingemag.com

Many of these hijacked domains are registered to:

   BankNews Publications
   5115 Roe Blvd, Ste 200
   Shawnee Mission, Kansas 66205
   United States

It appears that BankNews Publications have lost control of their GoDaddy account.

82.211.45.81 will actually resolve for any subdomain at all for these hacked domains, but these are a sample of malicious subdomains hosted on this server:

"MediaWiki Mail" Spam / carewelhealth.com

A novel spam, in this case leading to a fake pharmacy on carewelhealth.com.. but it could just as easily be malware.

Date:      Sun, 22 Apr 2012 16:09:12 +0000
From:      MediaWiki Mail [wiki@wikimedia.org]
Subject:      Account details on Wikipedia

Wikipedia

Someone (probably you, from IP address 105.191.258.285) requested a reminder of your account details for Wikipedia. The following user account is associated with this e-mail address: xxxxxxxxxxx

This reminder will expire in 7 days.
If you didn't initiate the request on Wikipedia, feel free to cancel this message and uncheck the "Reminder" checkbox in your account.

Thanks, and once again Welcome!

Of course, the IP address of 105.191.258.285 is invalid, but most people probably won't be looking too closely. Keep an eye out for this type of spam. it might well lead to something nastier than a fake Viagra merchant.
