China�s Xinhua news site hacked

Xinhuanet

A section of China�s official Xinhua news Web site was hacked and was serving malware last month, however, Google�s safe browsing service is still labeling it as unsafe despite the fact that it was fixed more than a week ago.

The hack is one of several high-profile compromises of government sites recently. The U.S. Department of the Treasury site on Monday was found to have a malicious iFrame exploit that directed browsers to a site in the Ukraine that served malware, according to AVG researcher Roger Thompson.
