Attention! Norton Update Center is announced to be vulnerable for cross-site scripting, redirects and html injections!


Hackers, who only seek to redirect PC users into their download websites, infect computers with malware, adware or spyware and finally rip people off, have been noticed to be using Norton Update Center vulnerability.

Firstly, victims get suspiciously looking emails from Norton where people are asked paying for some kind of extended subscription. The sad news is that if fallen into this, PC users instead of paying for Norton give their money and financial details for scammers.

Be careful if you have already received such e-mail from Norton asking you to subscribe something.
