One of our readers, Dalibor Cerar, sent us an email about an issue impacting Cisco...at this point.  While its a hardware issue, the result if it occurs is a self inflicted Denial of Service.  Cisco released a notice on February 2 that some of its products had an issue with the Clock Signal component manufactured by a supplier.  This was discovered late in November 2016.  According to Cisco:

"Although the Cisco products with this component are currently performing normally, we expect product failures to increase over the years, beginning after the unit has been in operation for approximately 18 months. Once the component has failed, the system will stop functioning, will not boot, and is not recoverable."

Keep in mind, Cisco says the component is used by other companies so I would expect to see this list grow to other vendors.

Here is the current list of the known Cisco/Meraki products and the link to their Field Notice:

Enter comment here... a fake TeamViewer page, and that page led to a different type of malware. This week's infection involved a downloaded JavaScript (.js) file that led to Microsoft Installer packages (.msi files) containing other script that used free or open source programs.
distribute malware. Even if the URL listed on the ad shows a legitimate website, subsequent ad traffic can easily lead to a fake page. Different types of malware are distributed in this manner. I've seen IcedID (Bokbot), Gozi/ISFB, and various information stealers distributed through fake software websites that were provided through Google ad traffic. I submitted malicious files from this example to VirusTotal and found a low rate of detection, with some files not showing as malware at all. Additionally, domains associated with this infection frequently change. That might make it hard to detect.
