A new ransomware exploit has been discovered which affects the Linux OS. Known as "Linux.Encoder.1", it mostly affects web servers: Nginx and/or Apache are affected (MySQL) so admins are warned.

I must have copied too many words for the ‘excerpt’ function.

Here is a much-shortened re-post to guide others to this potential problem (the ransomware, in case you were wondering).

Admins beware...

I clicked on this Comment link.

Then, my computer was taken over by ransom-ware.

What should I do?

Ransomware whatever. Only one patch and done, just forget about it.

Did they successfully intrude in OS X yet?
