I think he means the 0700 on the containing directory for the "unwritable_file".

Re: Gadu-Gadu Local/Remote Buffer Overflow vulnerability

1. you didn't wrote OS specification. It was Win XP or Vista? Which language? It was fully patched? DEP was turned on? Have you tried on privileged user?

2. Why did you wrote VERY HIGH threat? This is local buffer overflow. Moreover user has to replace original file. This vulnerability has more to do with SE :(.

3. I haven't debug this overflow event, could you tell me, how much bytes can you parse?

Nice find.

Cheers,
JD

Well, at first I would say this might definitely somewhat unexpected.

Please tell me, who issued 'chmod 0666 unwritable_file'? Was that an attacker? 
No, that was the owner of 'unwritable_file', nobody else. What the 0666 file 
mode means? It means, that everybody can write to the file, can't he? So why do 
you believe that pretension legitimate?

RE: An account of the Estonian Internet War

tell you that my visa was working properly all the time, and my bank was
24/7 available.

This all led me to the conclusion, that all the hush is about a couple (ok,
maybe tens or hundreds) of DDoS attacks being done.
Tell me, how many attacks or ok, attack attempts does your corporate network
suffer during the day ?

What concerns that student you wrote about, well, Gadi please, as far as I
know that was a ping-of-death he commited against the server of one
political party.
