Call for Paper: 3rd Workshop on Security and Privacy in Social Networks

3rd Workshop on Security and Privacy in Social Networks

Call for Papers

Third International Workshop on Security and Privacy in Social Networks 2012 (SPSN-2012) in conjunction with IEEE SocialCom 2012, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, September 3-6, 2012
http://spsn12.media.mit.edu/index.html

Scope of Workshop:

The workshop aims to bring to the forefront innovative approaches for analyzing and enhancing the security and privacy dimensions in online social networks. In order to facilitate the transition of such methods from theory to mechanisms designed and deployed in existing online social networking services, we need to create a common language between the researchers and practitioners of this new area, spanning from the theory of computational social sciences to conventional security and network engineering.

Cross Site Identification (CSID) attack. Description and demonstration.

Hi,

A new type of vulnerability is described in which publicly available
information from social network sites obtained out of context, can be
used to identify a user in cases where anonymity is taken for granted.

This attack (dubbed Cross Site Identification, or CSID) assumes the
following scenario: A user that is currently logged on to her social
network account visits a 3rd party site, supposedly anonymously, in
another browser tab. The 3rd party site causes her browser to contact

XSS and SQL Injection Vulnerabilities on Symphony CMS 2.2.3

Description
------------------
Symphony is a web-based content management system (CMS) that enables
users to create and manage websites and web applications of all shapes
and sizes—from the simplest of blogs to bustling news sites and
feature-packed social networks.

Details
-------------------
Symphony is affected by several XSS and SQL Injection vulnerabilities.
Example PoC urls are as follows :

iMesh <= 7.1.0.x IMWebControl Class (IMWeb.dll 7.0.0.x) remote exploit

(IE7/XP full patched)
by rgod, site: http://retrogod.altervista.org/

software site: http://www.imesh.com

"iMesh is a file sharing and online social network. It uses a proprietary,
centralized, P2P protocol. iMesh is owned by an American company iMesh,
Inc. and maintains a development center in Israel.
iMesh was the first company to introduce "swarming" - the ability to download
one file from multiple sources, increasing download speed."

Dear John Smith,

 Actually,  browser DoS may be quite serious vulnerability, depending on
 nature  of  DoS.  Think  about e.g. banner or content exchange network,
 social  networks,  web  boards,  etc where browser vulnerability may be
 used  against  site  or  page because it will harm any visitors of this
 site or page.

 In  case  of  this  very vulnerability, most serious impact may be from
