Humor alert

Humor alert 01/07/2004 06:50 PM
The other day, I wrote a post saying weblogs are ruining Google. I hate to do this, I hate to explain a joke, but it seems there's been too much confusion. No, weblogs are not ruining Google. I was kidding because, see, this is what people do: they search for something on Google, a weblog is one of top responses, and then they piss and moan about weblogs ruining Google, etc. Do I need to resort to writing "J/K" next to all silly posts?

The other funny thing -- at least to me -- is that both times I used the expression "text wrap" in my query, rather than the more common "word wrap." So it extra made sense that Google would return my post to me. And funnier still was the fact that I'd forgotten I'd already looked for a text wrap plugin for Eclipse months ago. So you see the levels of humor here? Did you ever suspect megnut posts had so much depth to them?

Security Alert: Voluntary XSS

Security Alert: Voluntary XSS 04/09/2004 05:30 PM

This is a personal security alert against a dangerous yet increasingly popular practice which I call Voluntary XSS.  Voluntary XSS involves a website voluntarily embedding script fragments hosted by another, typically very popular, website.  Here is an example:

Voluntary XSS is dangerous because the practice builds a hub-and-spoke (or star) vulnerability network which exposes all the spoke websites to  weaknesses in the hub website.  Since active contents of 'bar.js' from the hub website in the example above is typically injected into every page served by spoke websites, penetration at the hub website allows hackers to change contents of all pages served by spoke websites instantly by replacing the content of 'bar.js' with their own script.

As to how wide spread the use of Voluntary XSS is, Google uses Voluntary XSS to display ads at Google AdSense sites and Technorati uses Voluntary XSS for blog claiming blogs.  I haven't checked Amazon and Yahoo yet, but I intend to soon.

Since this is a personal security alert, allow me to be more blunt than formal security alerts: This is serious shit folks.  By inserting those HTML fragments into your webpages, you are betting that websites hosting those HTML fragments are and will remain impenetrable.Voluntary XSS makes those key websites very attractive to hackers and I seriously doubt any website can withstand constant onslaughts by smart hackers.

Blacklist Alert Service 02/18/2004 10:49 PM

A banker from downunder and a wee to the right just informed me that he can't read my blog because WebSense, used by his bank, is blocking the Docuverse domain.  I know where to go for regular checkup of my credit ratings. Where can I go to find out whether I am on blacklists and how can I get myself off them?  Is there a notification service and correction procedures for blacklists?  If not, I think there is a need for such a service so I'll help in putting one together.
