Reddit warning!! - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Willravel · 09-27-2009, 07:09 PM

Please do not go to reddit. There's malicious javascript spreading through everyone's comments/inboxes.

If you've already gone and done it, disable javascript in your browser, go back to reddit, and delete your last few comments which have been changed to the malicious javascript.

Is that why half of the comments are f00bared? I'm surfing in opera on a mac, am I still liable?

Willravel · 09-27-2009, 07:17 PM

You are. I've tried with FF/Safari/Opera for Mac and all seem to be victimized.

telekinetic · 09-27-2009, 07:19 PM

Ah. Good thing the Opera default installation has javascript disabled

Either that, or I turned it off and forgot.

Oh my this is nasty what it dose it when you mouse over the text it runs. It grabs every reply button that is the first loop and 'clicks' it. Then it grabs the text area. Second loop is putting the attack code in every comment box. Last loop is clicking every save button.

Yeah I found a thread like that. Ouch.

Hey, good thing there isn't anything useful on Reddit.

...except for those awesome reoccurring Wayne's World quotes.

...

Thanks for the heads up, Will.

Willravel · 09-27-2009, 08:40 PM

Okay, it's safe again.

FuglyStick · 09-27-2009, 08:55 PM

Willravel · 09-27-2009, 09:02 PM

Then maybe you missed the news about Glenn Beck raping and murdering a girl in 1990....

SSJTWIZTA · 09-27-2009, 09:23 PM

Vigilante · 09-27-2009, 10:05 PM

Haven't even visited the site once.

FF with noscript will take care of this for sure.

Willravel · 09-27-2009, 10:51 PM

Oh, yeah you can just turn off your javascript in a situation like this, but most people have javascript enabled in their browsers so... you know.
