LinkedIn spam / apensiona.ru

This fake LinkedIn spam leads to malware on apensiona.ru:

From: messages-noreply@bounce.linkedin.com on behalf of LinkedIn Connections
Sent: Tue 18/12/2012 14:01
Subject: Join my network on LinkedIn


LinkedIn
Hien Lawson has indicated you are a Friend
I'd like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn.

- Hien Lawson

 View invitation from Hien Lawson 

WHY MIGHT CONNECTING WITH Hien Lawson BE A GOOD IDEA?

Hien Lawson's connections could be useful to you

After accepting Hien Lawson's invitation, check Hien Lawson's connections to see who else you may know and who you might want an introduction to. Building these connections can create opportunities in the future.
2012, LinkedIn Corporation 

The malicious payload is at [donotclick]apensiona.ru:8080/forum/links/column.php (the same payload as here) although this time the IPs have changed to:

109.235.71.144 (Serveriai, Lithunia)
176.31.111.198 (OVH, France)
217.112.40.69 (Utransit , UK)

Here's a plain list if you want to block the lot:
109.235.71.144
176.31.111.198
217.112.40.69

Blocking emails from linkedin.com at your perimeter might also be a good idea.

UPS (or is it USPS) spam / apensiona.ru

Spammers often get UPS and the USPS mixed up. They're not the same thing at all. And this one throws FilesTube into the mix as well. Anyway, this fake UPS / USPS / FilesTube spam leads to malware on apensiona.ru:

Something evil on 87.229.26.138

This seems to be a bunch of evil domains on 87.229.26.138 (Deninet, Hungary) being used in injection attacks. Possible payloads include Blackhole (for example).

There are two sets of domains, .in domains being used by themselves and .eu domains being used with subdomains, listed below.

The registration details are probably fake, but for the record the .eu domains are registered to:
Juha Salonen
Lukiokatu 23
13430 Hameenlinna
Hameenlinna
Finland
salonen_juha@yahoo.com


The .in domains are registered to:

The links in the email bounce through a legitimate hacked site, and in the samples I have seen end up on [donotclick]6.bbnface.com/string/obscure-logs-useful.php or [donotclick]6.mamaswishes.com/string/obscure-logs-useful.php both hosted on 173.246.102.223 (Gandi, US) which probably contains many other evil sites, so blocking that IP address would probably be prudent.
