| Sony bundles rootkit-like software on USB drive Again! they dont have learn the lesson from last time! A USB fingerprint authentication device from Sony contains rootkit-like technology, according to security watchers. The MicroVault USM-F fingerprint reader software bundled with the stick installs a hidden directory under Windows. "Files in this directory are also hidden from some antivirus scanners (as with the Sony BMG DRM case) — depending on the techniques employed by the anti-virus software. It is therefore technically possible for malware to use the hidden directory as a hiding place," warns ant i-virus firm F-Secure. http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/#00001263 |
