Lots of German-language spam yesterday and today, from various compromised machines around the world, including quite a few in New Zealand. Seems to be related to the Sober virus, as in the last similar incident. More details, and some postfix filters here: http://isc.sans.org/ cheers, Jamie -- James Riden / j.riden(a)massey.ac.nz / Systems Security Engineer Information Technology Services, Massey University, NZ.

We're not getting the virus itself, but spam relayed from hosts which the virus has compromised, plus backscatter where the forged sender address is in our domain. cheers, Jamie -- James Riden / j.riden(a)massey.ac.nz / Systems Security Engineer Information Technology Services, Massey University, NZ.

Part of the problem here was the Ministry of Education supplies CA eTrust to most NZ state and state-integrated schools, and the other week CA took somewhere around 24 hours to get a definition for whatever Sober variant it was out. It was slipping straight through schools' desktop AV and (of the schools which have them) mail filters for a full school day. Teachers are stupid* and open attachments, and with address books and schools on broadband, schools quickly infected other schools and so on... It was one chaotic day. We're still getting many messages blocked which appear to be from other schools.

Teachers can do many wacky things to break stuff.
Clarification: this was about a vicious Sober variant that hit us on May 5th. I was thinking the wrong week. That one was sometimes also in German but about soccer, not politics.
