Last Updated: Fri Jul 18 20:43:11 EDT 2008 [ john-1.7.3.1.tar.gz ] 6a2e174e71b2a220d5f8a34f1d2ce540 John the Ripper is a fast password cracker, currently available for many flavors of Unix (11 are officially supported, not counting different architectures), DOS, Win32, and BeOS. Its primary purpose is to detect weak Unix passwords, but a number of other hash types are supported as well. [ prelude-manager-0.9.14.tar.gz ] ca47665fcf299732509459956297320b Prelude Manager is the main program of the Prelude Hybrid IDS suite. It is able to register local or remote sensors, let the operator configure them remotely, receive alerts, and store alerts in a database or any format supported by reporting plugins, thus providing centralized logging and analysis. [ Software.Distribution.Malware.Infection.Vector.pdf ] f0295501b1659600e2481f6a2cb082cb This paper presents an efficient mechanism as well as the corresponding reference implementation for on-the-fly infecting of executable code with malicious software. Their algorithm deploys virus infection routines and network redirection attacks, without requiring the modification of the application itself. This allows infection of executables with an embedded signature when the signature is not automatically verified before execution. They briefly discuss countermeasures such as secure channels, code authentication as well as trusted virtualization that enables the isolation of untrusted downloads from other applications running in trusted domains or compartments.

[ ZDI-08-044.txt ] 58c97cd821304abdbc467ae1ad85e405 A vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Mozilla Firefox. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page. The specific flaw exists in the browser's handling reference counters to the nsCSSValue:Array class. Creating more then 65,535 references will overflow a 16-bit reference counter and therefore result in an erroneous free() while the object still exists. Properly manipulated this can result in arbitrary code execution under the context of the current user. [ ZDI-08-043.txt ] cf0518925fb29057bec90deed667e775 A vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Sun Java Web Start. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page. The specific flaw exists in the GetVMArgsOption() function used while parsing the java-vm-args attribute of the j2se tag in xml based JNLP files. When a user downloads a malicious JNLP file, the vulnerable attribute is read into a static buffer. If an overly long value is defined by the java-vm-args attribute, a stack based buffer overflow occurs, resulting in an exploitable condition. [ ZDI-08-042.txt ] 40bc93865482ae2445c34853dcd2207d A vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Sun Java Web Start. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page. The specific flaw exists in the writeManifest() method of the CacheEntry class. A directory traversal flaw in this method allows the creation of arbitrary files on the target system. After the file has been created, a call to Runtime.getRuntime.exec() can be used to execute the file. [ USN-623-1.txt ] 134f5257fe6d05be8b868a8de33caf4f Ubuntu Security Notice 623-1 - A flaw was discovered in the browser engine. A variable could be made to overflow causing the browser to crash. If a user were tricked into opening a malicious web page, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. Billy Rios discovered that Firefox did not properly perform URI splitting with pipe symbols when passed a command-line URI. If Firefox were passed a malicious URL, an attacker may be able to execute local content with chrome privileges.

[ draft-ietf-tsvwg-port-randomization-01.txt ] 3169ae2876e24bcbe919b97c4fecdeb4 This document describes a simple and efficient method for random selection of a client port number, such that the possibility of an attacker guessing the exact value is reduced. While this is not a replacement for cryptographic methods, the described port number randomization algorithms provide improved security/obfuscation with very little effort and without any key management overhead. The mechanisms described in this document are a local modification that may be incrementally deployed, and that does not violate the specifications of any of the transport protocols that may benefit from it, such as TCP, UDP, SCTP, DCCP, and RTP.
