These client-side binary vulnerabilities were discovered using the
Android SDK that includes an ARM architecture emulator. Binary
vulnerabilities are the most common security bugs in computer software.
Basic bibliography on these vulnerabilities includes a recently updated
handbook about security holes that also describes current
state-of-the-start exploitation techniques for different hardware
platforms and operating systems [6].
The vulnerabilities discovered are summarized below grouped by the type
of image file format that is parsed by the vulnerable component.

As of today 25 September 2008, I am using the latest 1.0.3.7 firmware
for my region (Singapore), US also use this version.
1/ Outdated Samba 3.0.2, vulnerable to numerous security holes.
2/ Default admin:admin user
3/ Default open guest user, noway to disable it
4/ It is impossible to disable SAMBA completely! This is a wireless

"A zero-day (or zero-hour) attack is a computer threat that exposes undisclosed or unpatched computer application vulnerabilities. Zero-day attacks take advantage of computer security holes for which no solution is currently available."

NukeSentinel seems to be most respected and powerful "protection system" for
phpnuke and yes - it can make attacking nuke-powered website more complicated.
But as we can see from current advisory, NukeSentinel itself has security
holes and can be exploited to attack website engine below.
Vulnerabilities: Critical Sql Injection in "nsbypass.php"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Internet Explorer 8.0 Beta 2. This new version of Microsoft's famous
browser includes new security improvements such as a Cross Site Scripting
(XSS) filter. This version also includes a new object that safely allows
transferring data across domains, allowing them to interact with each other.
The Anti-XSS filter has been found to have some security holes in the
current implementation. Microsoft decided to filter "Type 1 XSS" which is
free text send to the server being reflected to the user and therefore
injecting HTML code into the website's page. They chose not to handle
certain situations such as injection into a JavaScript tag space, which
would be extremely difficult to filter. The software giant also chose not
Dokeos 1.8.6.2 fixes these 2 security holes. Dokeos 1.8.6.2 has been released one day after we got informed about this security release.

- do not use libc features that are "complicated"
and may contain security holes. For example, you probably shouldn't
try to use regcomp() to compile an untrusted regular expression.
Regular expressions are just too complicated, and there are many
different libc's out there.

Lots of security holes can fall into that category! The code matches
its design, and works as expected... it's just that the author had no
idea what he was getting himself into. =8^)
