It appears that this case was not posted to the list yet:

"Etisalat, the carrier responsible for bringing the BlackBerry solution to the 
United Arab Emirates, released a very suspect official update.
A member on the official support forums did some detective work, and found some 
suspicious code in the update. According to the user:

“Blackberry subscribers for Etisalat (one of the official service providers in 
the UAE) received a WAP Push to download a JAR named “registration”

The description of the “update” was as follows:

“Etisalat network upgrade for Blackberry service. Please download to ensure 
continuous service quality.”"
