RE: Latest round of web hacking incidents for 2007 & Project news

We have also started adding more classifications to each incident. In
addition to the attack method we now track for each incident its geography,
the outcome of the attack and the industry sector it occured at. We are
going to use this information in the our first annual Web Incidents summary
report to be issued in early January.

So if you know of a web hacking incident that you feel should be in the
database and is not (or you could not find it), send me an e-mail at ofer at
shezaf.com, so it will be there in time for the annual report.

[ MDVSA-2010:070 ] firefox

 Problem Description:

 Security issues were identified and fixed in firefox:
 
 Security researcher regenrecht reported (via TippingPoint's Zero Day
 Initiative) a potential reuse of a deleted image frame in Firefox 3.6's
 handling of multipart/x-mixed-replace images. Although no exploit was
 shown, re-use of freed memory has led to exploitable vulnerabilities
 in the past (CVE-2010-0164).

In CoreLabs Security Advisory CORE-2008-0826 [2] a vulnerability that
allowed attackers to gain access to any file on the local filesystem of
a computer running vulnerable versions of Internet Explorer was
disclosed. During the vulnerability reporting process Core provided
Proof-of-Concept code to the vendor that successfully exploited the bug
on Internet Explorer 8 which at the time was deemed not vulnerable by
Microsoft because the bug had been patched prior to RTM. Upon further
investigation, the vendor determined that the proof-of-concept provided
by Core was actually exploiting a different bug than the one originally
