Abstract(in English) Due to incidents of web-based malware infection lead by a tampered web content, called Gumblar, clarification of the actual situation of Gumblar and effective countermeasures against it are urgently needed. In this research, we conducted periodical investigation for tampered web sites over the course of six months by using a web-client honeypot we developed. We discovered 300 tampered sites, 821 exploit site's fully qualified domain name (FQDN), and 93 malware executables. Based on the investigation result, we discovered the features of tampered web sites and exploit web sites in the view point of temporal sequence. Moreover, we conducted an experiment on the matching between DNS cache information and exploit's FQDNs/IP addresses to estimate the rate of victim users as well as discovering unknown exploit site's FQDN. The matching result showed 1) infection rates of Gumblar.x and Gumblar.8080 are from 0.070 to 0.102 % and from 0.004 to 0.055 % respectively, and 2) the number of unknown exploit site's FQDNs related with Gumblar.8080 are 1811.
