Yahoo! Finance sites as target of attackers

- Entry updated to include information about site us.biz.yahoo.com -

It appears that three Yahoo! Finance sites have been defaced recently.

The main site

http://biz.yahoo.com/

is accessible, but attacker’s signs are still available.
UPDATE: At 08:45UTC signs removed

NOTE: http://biz.yahoo.com/ redirects to http://finance.yahoo.com/
and http://biz.yahoo.com/ is still owned.

Sites biz22.finance.dcn.yahoo.com and biz26.finance.dcn.yahoo.com running FreeBSD and unknown Web server have ‘Yahoo owned’ text as well.

The Netblock owner of biz.yahoo.com is HotJobs.com Ltd.

Zone-H mirror is here.

UPDATE:
http://us.biz.yahoo.com/ is one of the targets too, see mirror information here.
