微软安全响应小组(MSRT)正在调查Internet Explorer 8中的一个神秘漏洞,这是一个已经被公开披露的神秘漏洞。
该漏洞可以让黑客窃取认证凭据,然后令受害者不受自己控制地发出危险的twitter信息。
值得注意的是,利用该漏洞的黑客相当狡猾,他们“合理”地利用了网址缩短服务来迷惑受害者,不过目前已知Opera、Firefox、Chrome和Safari都不受此漏洞影响。

Hi,
In an attempt to get this bug fixed...
A nasty vulnerability exists in the latest Internet Explorer 8. I have been unsuccessful in persuading the vendor to issue a fix.
The bug permits -- for example -- an arbitrary web site to force the victim to make tweets.
(For academic research purposes only)
Harmless example: http://scary.beasts.org/misc/twitter.html
This is not weaponized. It won't do anything to your Twitter account unless you press the button.
Notes:
- This is purely an IE bug; there is no fault on behalf of Twitter and there is no reasonable workaround.
- Similar attacks can be mounted against other sites of interest.
- There's evidence to suggest that Microsoft has been aware of this since at least 2008.
- This could interact unpleasantly with the trust people place in URL shorteners.
- This probably affects earlier versions.

- A less serious variant in all the other major browsers (long since fixed by all of them):
