WASC Announcement: WASC Threat Classification v2.0 Published

The Web Application Security Consortium (WASC) is pleased to announce the long awaited release of the WASC 
Threat Classification v2.0. The Threat Classification is an effort to classify the weaknesses, and attacks 
that can lead to the compromise of a website, its data, or its users. This document's primarily purpose is 
to serve as a reference guide for common attacks and weaknesses.

Main goals
- Refine document scope, terminology, and purpose
- Update existing sections when applicable
- Add missing attacks and weaknesses
- Creation of a firm, scalable base foundation allowing for the introduction of data views allowing for various

Re: Vulnerability in CB Captcha for Joomla and Mambo

It's not serious statement. This is known for a long time class of
vulnerability. If you didn't read WASC TC yet, then you'd better read it.

First, this is Insufficient Anti-automation vulnerability. The class
Insufficient Anti-automation is listed in WASC Threat Classification v1
(released in 2004) and in Threat Classification v2 (released in 2010). In TC
v2 it's also referenced as WASC-21.

Second, this attack is directed on the site. This hole doesn't belong to
Client-side Attacks (TC v.1), but to Logical Attacks (TC v.1) and is using

Re: DoS vulnerability in Google Chrome

And not only Firefox (and the system) must know about it, but the attacker
also must know about it :-).

My idea was to made blocking DoS attack on Chrome (first exploit was
blocking DoS, second was blocking DoS and DoS via resources consumption).
Which I wrote about last year in my Classification of DoS vulnerabilities in
browsers (http://websecurity.com.ua/2550/). In 2008 I wrote about many
blocking DoS vulnerabilities in browsers, and this year I continued to write
about such holes, and after this one I'd write about another one soon (which
I found last year). Like these DoS vulnerabilities in Firefox, IE, Chrome
and Opera (http://websecurity.com.ua/3194/). Or like DoS vulnerability in

WarVOX 1.0.0 Released

[ http://warvox.org ]

WarVOX is a suite of tools for exploring, classifying, and auditing
telephone systems. Unlike normal wardialing tools, WarVOX works with the
actual audio from each call and does not use a modem directly. This
model allows WarVOX to find and classify a wide range of interesting
lines, including modems, faxes, voice mail boxes, PBXs, loops, dial
tones, IVRs, and forwarders. WarVOX provides the unique ability to
classify all telephone lines in a given range, not just those connected
to modems, allowing for a comprehensive audit of a telephone system.
