Title: Possible virus threat at the Terragen Image Gallery
Post by: AP on January 09, 2016, 06:49:13 AM
My security suite just quarantined a JS/Agent.NQO trojan the second i clicked to view that gallery. Just a warning for everyone here.

Weird, I can't believe Oshyan would do such a thing  :P

What Antivirus software do you have? Such warnings were mostly false positive here.

Likely a false positive as there is no information on it doing anything. JS simply doing something too fast can cause these false positives.

Hmm, I'm not seeing any problems here. Is anyone else getting any errors, warnings, etc? It certainly could be a false positive, but I'll look into it.

When I enabled ESET I did, but ESET is known to be increasingly picky.

The only problem I'm getting with the image gallery is none of my images are on it.  :o ;)

Seems all clear.

I did read some stuff on hoverIntent.js being hijacked by people that already have a infection on their computer. Not sure if relevant.

Edit:

However, the actual files in question being downloaded to our computers have issues...

Hmm, but only according to 3 out of 55 scanners, which is strong indication of a false positive in my experience.

Considering the entry is only a couple days old with no info it's hard to say. It's llikely nothing, and a false detection based on new updates. The files in question don't have any extra file information whether headers or otherwise.

If more then likely there is no issue, then i will leave it at that. Yes, ESET can be very picky. Apologies for the scare.

Got a notice from Avira that there is a .js trojan just released this week to watch out for...trying to find the e mail and will post it when I do.

It was on a nag screen  as I have the free version and I can't locate it...sorry.
