Last 48 hours had been very horrible for Orkut users. Orkut is a social networking site by Google. A vast majority of profiles, nearly milions, had been defaced, had their passwords hacked, erased and more, all because of a cookie stealing script that goes by the name "Bom Sabado"
Few hours ago, google announced that they have fixed the vulnerability and there's no longer any threat from the worm, but as a word of caution, its best to have your passwords updated to be on the safer side. And if you want to know about this worm in detail, here is the place to go.
