“Kurt Seifried has reported a vulnerability in Sophos Anti-Virus, which can be exploited by malware to bypass the scanning functionality.

Microsoft Creates Anti-Virus Bounty To

11/05/2003 10:59 AM
What do you if you're in an unchartered area with no reasonable law enforcement, and criminals are running rampant? You convince everyone to become the "enforcement" arm and find someone rich enough to pay them to help fight crime. Microsoft can't be bothered to fix a few of the holes in their programs that make it incredibly easy to pass on viruses, so instead, they're setting aside $5 million for anti-virus bounty hunters who can track down anyone responsible for worms, trojan horses or viruses. The rewards will be given out in $250,000 wads of cash from Bill Gates wallet increments. So, now, who's going to round up an anti-virus posse?

1st Email Anti-Virus is the only security program that protects from all kinds of email threats. Generic antivirus programs and setting the most secure options in email client software can't provide the same level of protection as 1EAV does. It copes with iframe / MIME header / CLSID extension attack, script attacks, ActiveX / Java / Flash attacks, "web bugs", fragmented message attack, and so on. [Shareware $19.95 30 Days 975 KB]

CNet is reporting about the RIAA's appeal yesterday to the FCC to restrict end-users' ability to make home-recordings of music broadcasted over high-quality digital radio. Fortunately, the proposals are not going unopposed, as both consumer groups and electronics industry consortiums are pushing back against the RIAA's move to remove home-taping rights that consumers have had for years.

Mozilla Fails to Restrict Access to
"shell:"
07/10/2004 11:02 AM
“This notice covers BOTH a security concern and a DOS. 1)Using the ‘shell:’ prefix in addresses on a windows PC allows access to the local file system. AFAIK all shell shortcuts in IE will also work in mozilla. Addresses such as ‘shell:cookies’ passes the call to explorer and it shows the desired location. Address to individual files or cookies are handled by Mozilla and treated as a ‘file:’ protocol. While I have not looked into the exploitability of this behavior, it would seem to be a security risk as IE has supposedly dropped this functionality in SP1 for IE 6. 2) By making a request for a file that does not exist on the user’s system using the ‘shell:’ prefix, Mozilla will continue to open windows until the user’s system crashes.” The resolution is to apply a patch or update to the latest version.
