Cisco Security Advisory: Multiple Vulnerabilities in Cisco ASA 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliances and Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series ASA Services Module

Cisco ASA 5500 Series Adaptive Security Appliances (ASA) and Cisco
Catalyst 6500 Series ASA Services Module (ASASM) are affected by the
following vulnerabilities:

  * Cisco ASA UDP Inspection Engine Denial of Service Vulnerability
  * Cisco ASA Threat Detection Denial of Service Vulnerability

WASC Announcement: WASC Threat Classification v2.0 Published

The Web Application Security Consortium (WASC) is pleased to announce the long awaited release of the WASC 
Threat Classification v2.0. The Threat Classification is an effort to classify the weaknesses, and attacks 
that can lead to the compromise of a website, its data, or its users. This document's primarily purpose is 
to serve as a reference guide for common attacks and weaknesses.

Main goals
- Refine document scope, terminology, and purpose
- Update existing sections when applicable
- Add missing attacks and weaknesses
- Creation of a firm, scalable base foundation allowing for the introduction of data views allowing for various 

RE: mac trojan in-the-wild

exploit, I called it client-side.

I mostly agree, "If I can get you to run my malicious program, it is
always game over" and not always a "security problem", but it is the
reality a computer security professional has to manage, whether we like
it or not.  And yes, I don't consider a threat where the user
intentionally installs a malicious program and supplies their root or
administrator password a huge threat, but it is a risk we have to manage
either way.  

One way to manage some of the risk in an environment can be to not let

RE: Vulnerabilities in some SCADA server softwares

reporting security issues and sometimes "just bugz" in vendor software -
it's this sort of independent scrutiny that keeps the vendors honest and on
their toes. 

Where I take issue is with the false notion that public reporting leads to
anything more than an increased threat potential for the customers
themselves.  Your argument that SCADA devices are by their nature less
threatened due to their use case is false at best.  If *any* threat exists,
that threat is increased by public exposure of unmitigated attack
methodology; whether that threat is limited to clean rooms or public-facing
services is merely a matter of scale.
