According to Trend Micro, the Indian Embassy in Spain was found serving malware through an injected malicious iFrame that leads to a file detected by Trend Micro as BKDR_TDSS.CG. Trend Micro researchers are currently analysing file to identify its routines.

Initial investigations by the researchers also reveal that aside from the malicious iFrame, a different and large amount of code was also inserted into the website of the Indian Embassy in Spain. Numerous tags were found in the site with headers containing links to various websites. The said headers are hidden from unknowing visitors, though, since the code is set where the size of the header is too small to be visible.

The experts at TrendLabs also indicated that the Indian Embassy website isn't the only one injected with the codes, pointing to the possibility of a massive and global code injection attack. The set of injected codes was also reported to change from time to time.
