Today [b]TrendLabs[/b] declared a Yellow Alert to control the spread of [i]PE_BAGLE.Q[/i]. There has been numerous infection reports of this malware spreading in Korea and Japan.
[blockquote]This new BAGLE variant propagates via email in two ways. The first method it uses is sending email messages that exploits a known vulnerability in Microsoft Outlook, known as the Object Tag vulnerability in Popup Window (MS03-040). This exploit allows a malicious user to run arbitrary code on a user's system by creating an HTML-based email that exploits this vulnerability.
