That's the future, like it or not. Cookies are not only "good enough",
but they have distinct advantages over Digest when it comes to
verifying and tracking Identity.
But this stuff makes for good thought so keep the ideas rolling,

On Apr 07, 2008 I spoke with Kuza55 and Wisec about an attack I found some
time before that was a new attack vector for filesystem functions (fopen,
(include|require)[_once]?, file_(put|get)_contents, etc) for the PHP
language. It was a path normalization issue and I asked them to keep it
"secret" [4], this was a good idea cause my analisys was mostly
incomplete and erroneous but the idea was good and the bug was real and
disposable.
Later on Dec 24, 2008 on sla.ckers.org barbarianbob showed a path
truncation attack against PHP that is partially based on mine attack.

Pessimism is understandable; I don't fault you for that.

It is a good idea to prevent users from creating files on filesystems mounted
without nosuid. The following interesting solution for administrators who
cannot modify their partitioning scheme was suggested to me by Rob Holland
(@robholland):
You can use bind mounts to make directories like /tmp, /var/tmp, etc., nosuid,

I'd like to discuss this further, there are many options and I really
tell them to build better deployment images.
If you have this problem, your IT guys are not doing their job.

limits on everything. That said, I agree that implementation advice is
strongly needed.

Will certainly take a look. Thanks!

Consensus at the relevant IETF working-group (6man) seems to be to only
ban the Fragment Header (when SEND is not employed).
No, it isn't a good idea. You can use always Jrequest::getVar
specifing the type
(http://api.joomla.org/Joomla-Framework/Environment/JRequest.html#getVar).
The allowed types are: INT, FLOAT, BOOLEAN, WORD, ALNUM, CMD, BASE64,
STRING, ARRAY, PATH.
Regards.

In multiple locations of the MiFi web interface user input is not
properly encoded when output back to the user. One interesting location
is the key field for the wifi settings. I’m wondering why the hell
somebody thought it was a good idea to print the wifi key in clear text
back to the user, and in this case it’s not properly encoded either
giving us a nice 63 character persistent injection point for script.
So for those that weren’t paying attention: Any MiFi user that visits a
specially crafted page will give up their GPS location to the attacker.
and tell them to build better deployment images.

This AP can use VLAN tagging to separate management traffic from user data,
which is generally a good idea in any environment.

I disagree. You are involved in intense business negotiations. During lunch you leave your notebook unattended assuming it is safe with a password protected
userID. Your competitor goes in to the conference room and logs in with
Administrator and installs something like eBlaster to log everything
you do and email it to him.
Far fetched, but not a non-issue.

I disagree. You are involved in intense business negotiations. During lunch you leave your notebook unattended assuming it is safe with a password protected
userID. Your competitor goes in to the conference room and logs in with
Administrator and installs something like eBlaster to log everything
you do and email it to him.

(Sidenote; passing arrays by value is probably not good idea).

We are proud to announce the 16th annual Def Con.
If you are at all familiar with any of the previous Cons, then you will have
a good idea of what DEF CON will be like. If you don't have any experience
with Cons, they are an event on the order of a pilgrimage to Mecca for the
underground. They are a mind-blowing orgy of information exchange,
viewpoints, speeches, education, enlightenment... And most of all sheer,
unchecked PARTYING. It is an event that you must experience at least once in
your lifetime.
Hi,
To show the progress of the OSSTMM 3 we have released a 20 page sample
with the ToC included. You'll see the graphics have not been put in
nor the new cover attached and there's still some chapters missing and
2 needing editing but this sample should give you a good idea of the
extensive content we're working with and how far we've come since the
Lite version was released. It's a completely new re-write from 2.0
with a big focus on clarity for the end user. Let's just say we don't
want it to read like stereo instructions again ;)
Best regards,
Tony.

Lysistrata had a good idea.
=========================
The Shmoo Group (TSG) is an independent think-tank of security
professionals from around the world who donate their time and energy
towards information security research and development. Six years ago
TSG had an idea. This idea has grown into a community recognized
security conference attended by over 1500 people.
Although ShmooCon is primarily a security conference, we encourage
innovative and interesting submissions on offbeat technology topics.
Greatest consideration will be given to new presentations, but updates
bunnies problem onto the Windows desktop. The level of warnings is
irrelevant, you could have a hundred or a thousand warnings and users would
still click through all of them to see the dancing bunnies. I first saw this
issue covered at the AVAR conference last year (before Vista had even been
released), there's only the abstract online at
http://www.aavar.org/avar2006/Program/ericchien.html, but it gives a good idea
of what the anti-virus guys are concerned about here. Microsoft's coverage of
gadget security at the time,
http://blogs.msdn.com/sidebar/archive/2006/08/31/733880.aspx, didn't inspire
any more trust in the design.

We're particularly excited about the new tool being debuted by the
DC949 folks, TwatFS. Like Twitter? Like the idea of distributed
storage? Well, you'll like this then. Hate Twitter? Like the idea of
it being used for something other than its intended purpose? Well,
you'll like this too.
Pre-registration will be closing May 15th. The pre-registration price
4850| $this->clean_globals( $_REQUEST );
This function will replace special characters such as
the null byte one and "../" (this replacement can be
easily bypassed, we'll see that later), by their
entities. Good idea, but bad implementation:
4979| function clean_globals( &$data, $iteration = 0 )
....|
4991| foreach( $data as $k => $v )
4992| {

Part of the problem of the CRL approach is that CAs usually have
policies against obtaining private keys and therefore can't prove to the
customer that their keys are compromised. And adding a CRL entry when
the customer isn't convinced that they've got a problem is probably not
a good idea, either.
=========================================================================
Now, register_globals has defaulted to off ever since PHP 4.2.0. I think it
would be fair to let PHP scripts rely on this, and not consider all scripts
that don't initialize their variables as vulnerable unless they require
register_globals to be on (this is not to say that it's not a good idea to
initialize variables).
And it would of course be nice if people posting to Bugtraq actually tested
their PoCs first. Can't the moderator spot obvious cases like this, or are
all vaguely relevant posts accepted, potentially for public ridicule?
