Charleston Coast-Guard Veterans Keep

Charleston Coast-Guard Veterans Keep
Troubled Computers Afloat
01/07/2005 04:14 AM
For the residents and businesses in Charleston and its neighboring communities in South Carolina, getting a computer repaired used to be a daunting task. First they had to find a local repair shop, then they had to disassemble their entire computer system, lug its many bulky components to their car, and drive to the store. And to make matters worse, those small repair shops often took several days to fix a PC, which caused tremendous headaches—especially for small or home-based businesses that rely on computers to keep their operations afloat. Fortunately this type of scenario is a thing of the past, thanks to high-tech entrepreneurs Ron Roddam and Elizabeth Lasicki who recently launched two new franchises with Geeks On Call®, the nation’s premier provider of on-site computer support. Roddam and Lasicki’s team of mobile computer professionals zips throughout Charleston and its neighboring communities in their trademark blue Chrysler PT Cruisers (affectionately dubbed “PC Cruisers™”) to deliver essential computer services including troubleshooting, repairs, upgrades, wired/wireless networking, one-on-one training, and custom-built PCs.

Windows XP SP2 Still Vulnerable To
Memory Attacks


Windows XP SP2 Still Vulnerable To
Memory Attacks
02/01/2005 09:40 PM
Russian security outfit, Maxpatrol, have discovered a way to defeat Microsoft® Windows® XP SP2 Heap protection and Data Execution Prevention mechanism.

Data execution prevention (DEP) is a set of hardware and software technologies that perform additional checks on memory to help protect against malicious code exploits. By default, software-enforced DEP only protects limited system binaries. Hardware-enforced DEP relies on processor hardware to mark memory with an attribute that indicates that code should not be executed from that memory.

Maxpatrol have published a full article on their discoveries. They claim that it's possible to implement arbitrary memory region write access (smaller or equal to 1016 bytes), Arbitrary code execution and DEP bypass.

The company have also published a solution named PTmsHORP. PTmsHORP allows restriction of lookaside list creation, governed by a special global flag. The company reported the problem to Microsoft on the 22nd December. We've contacted Microsoft about the problem and are awaiting a response.

AirWave Wireless's tool for managing large-scale access point deployments has signed 10 major universities: A little indulgence here, but my alma mater (Yale) and my hometown university (University of Oregon) are both on the list of 10 universities that AirWave will provide their management platform to. AirWave's approach allows heterogeneous enterprise APs from many major manufacturers to be used on a single network and managed with a single interface. If you're all Cisco or all Proxim, you might choose their expensive, exclusive management consoles. Or, you can opt for AirWave and have more flexibility about mixing and matching equipment that can be monitored and configured centrally. A tool like this helps commoditize enterprise hardware by allowing a level playing field for equipment from many vendors--including those that don't offer a central management system....
