New Microsoft security flaws found
08/20/2004 12:25 AMInternet security experts have found two "flaws" with Microsoft's
long-awaited security update for its Windows XP operating system but
the software giant insists that the new Service Pack 2 (SP2) is
secure.
Microsoft says SP2 offers users the latest security "innovations" but
Internet security experts say hackers could exploit cracks in SP2
defences to exploit a user's computer.
Microsoft began rolling out SP2 this week. It says the update fixes
several security holes and provides new protective features.

09/15/2004 07:48 PMWhile Microsoft's Internet Explorer has become the bane of computer
security, switching to Mozilla may not be the simple answer after all.
Security firm Secunia has issued a
"highly
critical" advisory that details 10 separate vulnerabilities found
in Mozilla, Firefox and Thunderbird. The flaws can be exploited
remotely, allowing an attacker to compromise a system and expose
sensitive data. Mozilla users are urged to upgrade to the latest
releases of each application, which contain the necessary fixes.

Critical Flaws
Security Experts to Microsoft: SP2 Has
Critical Flaws
08/20/2004 06:23 AMGerman Internet security experts Heise Security have discovered what
it calls two "flaws" in Service Pack 2. Microsoft has said
its Service Pack 2 offers users the latest security
"innovations," but Internet security experts said hackers
could exploit cracks in SP2 defences to exploit a user's computer.
According to Heise Security, "Computer hackers could evade SP2's
new security features and infect a computer that uses Windows with a
virus or a worm." Heise further explains that Windows also does
not source information properly if files are overwritten so that it
can "be tricked to execute files from the Internet" without
sparking a warning, even if users install the new SP2 update.
A Microsoft spokesperson addressed the warning by saying,
"Microsoft has investigated these reports and is not aware of any
instance in which an attacker could specifically bypass the service in
email or a Web browser to allow a malicious attacker access to a
user's system. We continue to encourage customers to review and
install Windows XP SP2."

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-017:
Vulnerability in Crystal Reports Web
Viewer Could Allow Information
Disclosure and Denial of Service
(842689)
07/13/2004 12:00 PMThis update resolves a newly-discovered vulnerability in Crystal
Reports and Crystal Enterprise from Business Objects. Microsoft Visual
Studio .NET 2003 (all versions) and Outlook 2003 with Business Contact
Manager redistribute Crystal Reports and are therefore affected by the
vulnerability. Microsoft Business Solutions CRM 1.2 redistributes
Crystal Enterprise, which is affected in the same way. The
vulnerability is documented in the Vulnerability Details section of
this bulletin.
An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could
retrieve and delete files through the Crystal Reports and Crystal
Enterprise Web viewers on an affected system. The number of files of
files that are impacted by this vulnerability would depend on the
security context of the affected component that is used by the Crystal
Web viewer.

Windows XP Service Pack Security: Uh Oh
Windows XP Service Pack Security: Uh Oh
08/27/2004 01:27 PMPC Magazine: Windows XP
SP2 Has a Dangerous Hole. Windows XP Service Pack 2 promises to
raise the security bar for the sometimes beleaguered operating system.
Unfortunately, one of the new features could be spoofed so that it
reports misleading information about system security, or worse, lets a
malicious program watch for an opportunity to do damage without being
detected.
Robert Scoble gave me a
hard
time when I advised people to wait a little while to install SP2.
I'm still waiting a little longer. (Of course, I have a serious
firewall already installed, and take other security measures, and one
of the reasons to use SP2 is its enhanced security features, which are
clearly better than what Microsoft was selling in XP and XP SP1.)
