Websense Security Labs research has uncovered a case where a museum's compromised Web server is serving malicious code based on the referrer making the request. A referrer could be, for example, a search engine such as images.google.com. As interesting as the fact that they're doing this, however, is which referrers trigger the delivery of malicious content, when others do not. In this case, the malicious content is served only when the referrers for the request are certain high-profile image search sites.
