KYE: “Behind the Scenes of Malicious Web Servers” released

The Honeynet Project released a new Know Your Enemy: “Behind the Scenes of Malicious Web Servers” white paper today, which follows up on recent publications about malicious web sites and attacks against common web clients.

Abstract:

“In this paper, we increase our understanding of malicious web servers through analysis of several web exploitation kits that have appeared in 2006/07: WebAttacker, MPack, and IcePack. Our discoveries will necessitate adjustments on how we think about malicious web servers and will have direct implications on client honeypot technology and future studies.”

Lots of cross over with recent UKHP activity and well worth a read.
