Computer Associates website hacked: routes visitors to Chinese malware site

Parts of Computer Associates’ main website were hacked last week, with visitors being automatically re-routed to a malware site hosted in China.

Computer Associates has not issued a statement on the hack, but newswire reports suggest that parts of the press section of its Ca.com portal were rerouting visitors to the uc8010.com domain, which has been hosting malware since last month.

Brian Chess, Fortify’s founder and chief scientist, says that the attack vector appears to be similar to a site hack of the Dolphin Stadium Web portal of early last year, with Javascript routines inserted into the body of the relevant pages.

“Unconfirmed reports suggest that the press section of the Ca.com portal is hosted by a third party organisation, but this makes no difference to the visitors, who were being redirected to a malware site in China,” he says...
