What Is Duqu Up To?

As researchers debate over a possible Duqu-Stuxnet connection and study a new zero-day exploit used in the Duqu attack, still no word on the actual targets or its missionEven as new clues have been uncovered about Duqu over the past few days — most notably a new zero-day attack that spreads via a Microsoft Word document — researchers remain at odds over whether this latest highly targeted threat with several parallels to Stuxnet is actually related to Stuxnet.The discovery revealed yesterday of a zero-day exploit used in the Duqu attack — specifically, a Word file containing malware that exploits a previously unknown flaw in Windows that was sent to one of the Duqu victim organizations — still doesn’t provide much more information on what specifically Duqu is up to, or who specifically should be worried about it.
