Netcraft: PayPal Security Flaw allows Identity Theft
Netcraft reports fraudsters actively exploiting XSS on paypal.com itself. The victim reaches a genuine PayPal URL under a valid 256-bit SSL certificate, but injected content claims the account is disabled and redirects to a fake login on a hex-encoded IP in Korea, which then harvests password, SSN, card number and ATM PIN.
