ILOVEYOU Worm: Social Engineering as Transmission Vector
Onel de Guzman (attributed) (2000)
一個VBScript蠕蟲嚟到你嘅收件箱:「ILOVEYOU」。邊個唔想被愛?你打開附件。即刻,佢透過你嘅Outlook聯絡人複製,覆寫文件,偷密碼。幾個鐘頭入面,佢感染咗全球數百萬個系統——五角大樓、議會、企業。損害估計達到100億美元。技術漏洞好直接:Windows會預設由電郵執行VBScript。但真正嘅利用係社交——主題「ILOVEYOU」觸發好奇、希望、想知邊個發送嘅慾望。下等元素睇落咁無害:只係一封情書。細小同脆弱同吸引。強大元素(安全協議、懷疑、謹慎)走咗一半去見佢,放低咗戒心。一條陰線升起去見上面五條陽線。少女有力;唔應該娶咁樣嘅少女。下等嘢升起只係因為上等嘅唔認為佢係危險。嗰個好奇嘅時刻,嗰個點擊,嗰個判斷嘅一次失誤——足以危及成個系統。

Practical Guidance
有啲細小同睇落無害嘅嘢想訪問你嘅系統。一個權宜之計捷徑。一個快速黑客。一個解決你即時問題嘅依賴項。睇落咁方便。
呢度係呢個可能意味住咩:危險唔係喺下等嘢本身——係喺你對佢嘅態度。安全漏洞唔係VBScript執行;係假設嚟自熟悉地址嘅電郵附件係安全嘅。技術問題令利用成為可能,但社交工程係傳播載體。
喺你嘅開發入面:係每週下載量喺幾千嘅npm套件,你安裝嚟節省三十分鐘。係從未撤銷嘅「臨時」權限授予。係「只係為咗調試」而捕獲憑據嘅日誌記錄。每個都睇落微不足道。每個都係入侵點。
正確嘅回應唔係偏執——係警惕。即刻檢查佢。青銅制動器意味住堅定、即時嘅界限。喺評估佢時唔好讓佢散播。首先容納,其次評估。嗰條魚喺缸度——令佢同客人隔離。喺你準確理解佢係乜嘢同佢做乜之前,唔好讓佢傳播到其他系統。
當你諗「可能冇問題」嗰刻——嗰個就係漏洞。嗰個就係點擊ILOVEYOU。
