Not so Merry Christmas Greeting
A PowerPoint presentation is going around emails right now called Christmas+Blessings-4.ppt which contains a version of the Hupigon (Hupigeon) Trojan. This installs two other files called msupdate.dll and sdfsc.dll.
The Trojan comes in an email with the subject "Merry Christmas to our hero sons and daughters!". There isn't much known about the attack but it is assumed to be based on the MS06-012 exploit in MS Office that lets commands be executed from a remote source.
