It appears that ebaumsworld’s invasion of Justin Bieber has suddenly exploded into the mainstream view, during that past couple of hours ebaum zeroed in on his YouTube video clips. Any hacks are being posted in the comment area on YouTube’s videos, publishing destructive code inside marquee tags. YouTube of course is in progress of stopping these kind of episodes through deleting the malicious comments. These codes have now spread out to almost all genres of video on youtube, from music videos to instructional videos, even random vlogs have been targetted by the attack.
While some people put up a redirect to other sites you can also find questionable images and popups now littering the whole of youtube as if someone had infested the site with a deadly virus.
To protect against these attacks you can disable commenting, or only enable comments after you have reviewed them, failing that YouTube will have this all sorted within 24 hours or less.
