NASA, Stanford sites hit by search engine scammers !

NASA, Stanford sites hit by search engine scammers !

May 10, 2011
Scammers looking to flog cheap software have hacked Web pages on high-profile websites, including those belonging to NASA and Stanford University. NASA, just a week away from its penultimate space shuttle launch, has now removed dozens of Web pages that popped up on its Jet Propulsion Laboratory website. They were used to flog low-cost versions of Adobe's Creative Suite and other products, according to cached versions of the pages, still viewable on Google. The scammers loaded up the Web pages with nonsense text (a sample: "Edit buy adobe premiere pro cs4 some callouts and balloons to make this time it took you and saved you a long time") and links to many other hacked pages. Affected sites included those for NASA, Stanford University, Syracuse University and Northeastern University. NASA had cleaned up its site Monday, but others, including Stanford, had not. Visitors to those sites could encounter the hacked pages even if they weren't looking for cheap softwar...

Between Buzz and Reality: The CTEM Conversation We All Need

Between Buzz and Reality: The CTEM Conversation We All Need

Jun 24, 2025Threat Exposure Management
I had the honor of hosting the first episode of the Xposure Podcast live from Xposure Summit 2025. And I couldn't have asked for a better kickoff panel: three cybersecurity leaders who don't just talk security, they live it. Let me introduce them. Alex Delay , CISO at IDB Bank, knows what it means to defend a highly regulated environment. Ben Mead , Director of Cybersecurity at Avidity Biosciences, brings a forward-thinking security perspective that reflects the innovation behind Avidity's targeted RNA therapeutics. Last but not least, Michael Francess , Director of Cybersecurity Advanced Threat at Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, leads the charge in protecting the franchise. Each brought a unique vantage point to a common challenge: applying Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) to complex production environments. Gartner made waves in 2023 with a bold prediction: organizations that prioritize CTEM will be three times less likely to be breached by 2026. But here's the kicker -...

SWFRETools 1.1.0 - Adobe Flash SWF file reverse engineering !

May 09, 2011
SWFRETools 1.1.0 - Adobe Flash SWF file reverse engineering ! SWFRETools package contains three different tools. The most advanced tool is called Flash Dissector. It is a Java-based GUI tool you can use to inspect the binary content of SWF files. The second tool is a Java-based command-line tool called Minimizer. This tool is useful for vulnerability researchers that have a SWF file that crashes Flash Player and now they want to get rid of all parts of the SWF file that are not related to the crash. The third tool is a primitive Python-based debugger that can be used to hook and trace the Flash Player executable. Download :  version 1.1.0 of the SWFRETools on GitHub
Lahore High court to Consider Permanent Ban on Facebook !

Lahore High court to Consider Permanent Ban on Facebook !

May 09, 2011
Lahore High court to Consider Permanent Ban on Facebook ! In Pakistan, blanket bans and censorship have been a regular feature. Since 2006, there have been instances where YouTube has been blocked, and more recently, Facebook. While the pretext is national security, the protection of Islam or the interest of the greater good, political motives have almost always been behind these acts. There were many critics of those lobbying against the ban on Facebook ban in May 2010, the constant criticism being: It's just a ban on Facebook, get over it. But actually, it wasn't "just a ban." It was about how we react to blasphemy, it was about the prevalent tendency to lynch others for what they say without hearing them out properly, without verifying, without giving second chances. It was about political appeasement, the use of religion for political purposes, and it was about the unconstitutional overstepping of authority by state institutions and departments. So it was not just about Faceboo...
Remote DoS Flaw in BIND Fixed in New Version !

Remote DoS Flaw in BIND Fixed in New Version !

May 09, 2011
The Internet Systems Consortium released an advisory ( https://www.isc.org/CVE-2011-1907 ) today informing BIND users that certain types of queries to name servers can cause the servers to crash and create a denial-of-service condition. This remotely exploitable bug only affects BIND users with the Response Policy Zones (RPZ) feature configured for RRset replacement, and has a high severity rating. The RPZ feature was initially built into 9.8.0 as a mechanism for modifying DNS responses from recursive servers according to local rules or those imported from a reputation provider. RPZ is generally used for forcing NXDOMAIN responses from untrusted names or RRset replacement. When RPZ is in use, queries from RRSIG for names configured for RRset replacements will trigger assertion failures and cause the name server process to exit. There is no active exploit here, but certain DNSSEC validators are known to send RRSIG queries, which then trigger the failure. A work-around for this issu...

Anonymous IRC networks - irc.anonops.net & irc.anonops.ru Hacked !

May 09, 2011
Anonymous IRC networks - irc.anonops.net & irc.anonops.ru Hacked ! Message By Anonymous : Dear Users of the AnonOps Network, We regret to inform you today that our network has been compromised by a former IRC-operator and fellow helper named "Ryan".  He decided that he didn't like the leaderless command structure that AnonOps Network Admins use. So he organised a coup d'etat, with his "friends" at skidsr.us . Using the networks service bot "Zalgo" he scavenged the IP's  and passwords  of all the network servers (including the hub) and then systematically aimed denial of service attacks at them (which is why the network has been unstable for the past week). Unfortunately he has control of the domain names AnonOps.ru (and possibly AnonOps.net, we don't know at this stage) so we are unable to continue using them. We however still have control  o ver   AnonOps.in, and will continue to publish news there. We would  STRONGLY ADVISE  ...
