ATTENTION Shoutlife Users!

US-CERT is aware of public reports of malicious code spreading via
popular social networking sites including myspace.com, facebook.com,
hi5.com, friendster.com, myyearbook.com, bebo.com, and livejournal.com.
The reports indicate that the malware, named Koobface, is spreading
through invitations from a user's contact that include a link to view a
video. If the users click on the link in this invitation, they are
prompted to update Adobe Flash Player. This update is not a legitimate
Adobe Flash Player update, it is malicious code.

Additionally, some of the reports indicate that there are multiple bogus
applications from other social networking sites being used to obtain
users' private information.

We encourage you to do the following to help mitigate the risks:

* Install antivirus software and keep the virus signature files up to date.
* Do not follow unsolicited links.
* Use caution when downloading and installing applications.
* Obtain software applications and updates directly from the vendor's
website.
* Refer to the Staying Safe on Social Networking Sites document for more
information on safe use of social networking sites.
* Refer to the Avoiding Social Engineering and Phishing Attacks document
for more information on social engineering attacks.
