Newly found Vulnerabilities 05/16/08:
We are aware of public reports of a spear-phishing attack circulating via email messages that claim to be petitions from the US Tax Court. These messages appear to be legitimate because they may contain very specific information about the message recipient. The message requests that the user follow a link to download additional information about the petition, but if a user clicks on this link, malicious code may be installed on the system.We encourage users to do the following to help mitigate the risk:
Review the alert posted by the United States Tax Court regarding this issue.
Do not follow unsolicited web links received in email messages.
Install anti-virus software and keep virus signature files up to date.
