Microsoft warns of targeted attacks exploiting unpatched PowerPoint flaw.
The exploits carry a Trojan, according to Microsoft, and in an interesting twist, the exploit files were recently submitted to the VirusTotal free malware-scanning site. "Either the miscreants who created these exploits were looking to see how antivirus products detect their new files, or the victims were looking to get some information about their maliciousness," blogged Cristian Craioveanu and Ziv Mador of Microsoft's Malware Protection Center.
