The US Department of Labor’s website has been infiltrated by [Chinese] hackers, according to a report from security firm AlienVault. “During the last few hours we have identified that the US Department of Labor website has been hacked and it is serving malicious code,” he said. They modified some files in the website so when a user visits the website some malicious code will be loaded from a malicious server. He said the firm has also detected a second function in the attack code, instructing it to target a patched vulnerability in Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.
