WHID 2008-58: New Orkut Worm in Brazil
XSSed reports another XSS worm in Orkut. Since Orkut is big in Brazil, it is quite natural that a Brazilian group created the worm.
I have used this occasion to sort out worms reporting in WHID.
- A worm is now considered an attack method rather than an outcome. If nothing else, the outcome of a worm is "planting of malware": itself.
- I have added a "Web 2.0" organization type as many of the XSS worms infect Web 2.0 sites.
