Redirection Roulette: Thousands of hijacked websites in East Asia redirecting visitors to other sites
Starting in early September 2022, tens of thousands of websites targeting East Asian audiences were compromised and redirected users to adult-themed content. The attack affected hundreds of thousands of visitors whose sessions were hijacked to other sites. The campaign demonstrates widespread website security compromise across the region.
Why it matters: Website administrators and organizations hosting content for East Asian audiences need to audit their systems for unauthorized redirects, verify integrity of their web configurations, and patch vulnerabilities that enabled the initial compromise.
