Paypal Phishing landing pages hosted at HostGator
It appears that a large number of websites, approximately 500, hosted on IP 192.185.225.116 are being used as PayPal Phishing landing pages. That IP is registered to websitewelcome.com, but we have been told by customers that the IP is in use by popular U.S. based web hosting company HostGator.
When the FQDN of a legitimate web page on that IP is appended with:
~pbhanney/goobooker/avatars/user_uploaded/manage/ffe02d0542523d2fca9d479a2b50a948/
for example
hxxp://24efitness.com/~pbhanney/goobooker/avatars/user_uploaded/manage/ffe02d0542523d2fca9d479a2b50a948/
will take you to a PayPal login landing page.
Google seems to be aware of the issue and is warning on attempts to access the pages.
The issue has been reported to both HostGator and Paypal, so hopefully they can clean it up soon.
Update: As of 2016-03-07. HostGator has cleaned up these landing pages.

Novel method for slowing down Locky on Samba server using fail2ban
One of our loyal readers, Gebhard, pointed out a nice post (in German) on how to slow down Locky if you are using a Samba server for filesharing in your environment. The technique takes advantage of fail2ban and some additional Samba logging to keep Locky from encrypting all the files on the share. It is worth a look. Thanx, Gebhard, for sharing.

distribute malware. Even if the URL listed on the ad shows a legitimate website, subsequent ad traffic can easily lead to a fake page. Different types of malware are distributed in this manner. I've seen IcedID (Bokbot), Gozi/ISFB, and various information stealers distributed through fake software websites that were provided through Google ad traffic. I submitted malicious files from this example to VirusTotal and found a low rate of detection, with some files not showing as malware at all. Additionally, domains associated with this infection frequently change. That might make it hard to detect.
