Fundamental Internet Flaw Revealed


Fundamental Internet Flaw Revealed 04/20/2004 03:34 PM
Well, there's a flurry of news article being rushed online today as news comes out about a "fundamental flaw" with TCP that could allow hackers to basically screw up routers all over the world, severely impacting internet traffic. The flaw was discovered a few months back, and people have apparently been working on a fix, but the article isn't entirely clear on whether or not important routers have really been patched, or if it's still being worked on. Either way, the guy who discovered the flaw is set to make a presentation about it on Thursday, after which he believes just about any smart hacker should be able to exploit it and do their best to take down the internet. The news is still pretty vague otherwise about this threat, and I'm always a little skeptical about "this will bring down the internet!" style claims, so if anyone has more info about how serious (or not) this is, feel free to share.

“A vulnerability has been reported in Mozilla and Mozilla Firefox, allowing malicious websites to spoof the user interface. The problem is that Mozilla and Mozilla Firefox don’t restrict websites from including arbitrary, remote XUL (XML User Interface Language) files. This can be exploited to “hijack” most of the user interface (including tool bars, SSL certificate dialogs, address bar and more), thereby controlling almost anything the user sees….A PoC (Proof of Concept) exploit for Mozilla Firefox…
