Using Memory Errors to Attack a Virtual Machine

We present an experimental study showing that soft memory errors can lead to serious security vulnerabilities in Java and .NET virtual machines, or in any system that relies on type-checking of untrusted programs as a protection mechanism. Our attack works by sending to the JVM a Java program that is designed so that almost any memory error in its address space will allow it to take control of the JVM. -- Sudhakar Govindavajhala, Andrew W. Appel

I've heard that it was possible to hack smartcards and similar devices before by tampering with them, but I've never understood how it was done until now. Apparently some security experts claim to have been aware of this technique for many years.

We Only Have So Much Trust

We Only Have So Much Trust 05/05/2004 08:12 AM

Offshoring: Companies guarding 'secret sauce': Interesting situation: U.S. companies are willing to send grunt IT work overseas, but not the intellectual property they worked so hard to develop. It seems that they don't trust overseas companies to keep their intellectual property safe.

Therein lies the dilemma for many technology executives confronting the issue of offshore outsourcing: U.S. companies are increasingly turning to other countries to reduce labor costs, but they must decide how far they can go without risking security breaches, communication lapses or operational breakdowns, when moving work thousands of miles away overseas.

I still agree with how this guy handled the "offshore problem." He figued out how much he would save by sending work offshore, then added back how much it was worth to him to have someone on-site. He then advertised a position at this (much less than market) rate. He was deluged with applications.

Kevin Salwen points to Starbucks' report on how corporately responsible it is. And, while I certainly would rather work for a company that cares enough to issue such a report than the egregiously selfish ad agency Kevin points to, the Starbucks report does raise a question: Who do you trust any more? So, Starbucks does up a lovely color brochure explaining just how good a world citizen it is. Kudos for at least pretending to care. But how much of the report is BS? ...

The government in the Rumsfield v. Padilla case, as quoted in the Times: "[I]n situations where there is a war ... you have to trust the executive to make the kind of quintessential military judgments that are involved in things like that." And when "the executive" breaches that trust? What then? If -- as this "executive" believes -- there's no judicial review, then there's only one review left: elections.

Can't Trust This Telecommuter

Can't Trust This Telecommuter 09/13/2004 04:10 PM
For all the talk about how we're soon going to be a nation of telecommuters, thanks to new technologies, Broadband Reports points out a study that shows one very big hurdle: most employers still don't trust their employees to work unsupervised. The study was done in Australia, so there's a chance the results wouldn't apply elsewhere, but it does seem like something that is likely to be a major hindering factor for many potential telecommuting opportunities. Of course, it's not just the bosses that don't trust telecommuters: 75% of employees think their telecommuting co-workers are simply goofing off and "are not working at all." At some point, however, someone is going to do a little cost-benefit analysis and realize that office space is a pretty big cost, and trusting your workers to actually do what you've asked them to do could actually pay off. Of course, on the flip side, expect to see many new technologies, applications and services to help solve this problem by somehow "monitoring" the work of telecommuting employees -- which is likely to make most workers only feel even less trusted.

Don't Trust E-Voting? Too Bad 09/15/2004 03:01 PM
Over in Maryland, where studies have shown that the e-voting machines are not secure, the courts have decided that if you don't trust the e-voting machines, that's your own damn problem. They will not allow people to ask for a paper ballot if they feel uncomfortable using one of those electronic voting machines. The court also found that the state had "done everything necessary" to show the e-voting machines were accurate and secure. Apparently, they have pretty low standards.

Dave Winer today points to Scott Rosenberg's excellent take on Google's new library venture. Scott concludes:

The public has a big interest in making sure that no one business has a chokehold on the flow of human knowledge. As long as Google's amazing project puts more knowledge in more hands and heads, who could object? But in this area, taking the long view is not just smart -- it's ethically essential. So as details of Google's project emerge, it will be important not just to rely on Google's assurances but to keep an eye out for public guarantees of access, freedom of expression and limits to censorship. [Scott Rosenberg]

I agree. That's one of the reasons, by the way, that the evolving relationship between electronic texts and physical books fascinates me so deeply. For the generation now coming of age, Google defines a sort of continental shelf. Whatever is on that shelf is considered accessible. Whatever isn't fades into the murky unfathomable depths. But when we can beam the halogen light into those depths and search them, we'll be reminded that -- whatever online access can or cannot be offered now, and however long it takes to make complex and sensitive adjustments to the copyright system -- the physical books exist, and are available for our use. ...

On a Mission: The New Internet Mission

"According to Nielsen, there are 31 million moms online. They're 38, tend to be married, are very smart -- college educated -- and are working moms. Moms forever have been key decision makers. What's interesting is how that translates to the Internet.

You have to be where they are online. In 2004, moms told us that they're spending more time online than watching television.... We did a lot of focus groups with moms. It's one of those time-saving devices. It simplifies their life, and that's what they're looking for when they turn to the Internet....

We arrived at four distinct segments: the Tech Nester, Mrs. Net Skeptic, the Yes Mom, and Passive Under Pressure. We got rid of that last segment because she's passive and a newbie, but we still ended up with 77% of Internet moms....

When we started really digging into the segments, we found that their similarities are more interesting than their differences. They were all after the same basic things. They want to simplify their lives. All trust the Internet. The Internet is where they turn to first. You don't have to have separate strategies to address each segment....

They all want information. They think the Internet is the most useful medium for accessing information. And as a source of entertainment, it came in number two. As it did for spending time with their kids. They've come to rely on the Internet. 84% said they would miss the Internet the most if it went away. It's the same with kids and teens." [Fast Company Now, via Lost Remote]

Although this article and the study are aimed more at marketers, it's interesting to read the results in the context of libraries. The need to do research, the desire for making life simpler, and the misguided trust of all things internet... how are libraries fitting into these womens' lives? Are they? There are whole trust circles online where libraries are nowhere to be found. How do we get there?

Using WS-Trust and WS-SecureConversation

Using WS-Trust and WS-SecureConversation 06/10/2004 07:25 PM
WS-Security provides a framework for securing SOAP messages based on XML Encryption, XML Signature and the notion of security tokens. XML Encryption is used to provide confidentiality protection for portions of a SOAP envelope while XML Signature is used to provide integrity protection for the same. Security tokens typically provide some notion of identity along with information pertaining to keys used to perform cryptographic operations. Multiple security tokens can be used in a message allowing different portions of the SOAP envelope to be secured for different intermediaries. Examples of security tokens include X509 certificates, Kerberos tickets and Username tokens. While WS-Security specifies mechanisms for placing security tokens in SOAP messages and referring to those tokens from encrypted or signed data it does not define how security tokens are actually acquired; that job can either be programmatic, or performed by calling a token issuing service as specified by WS-Trust.

As Google nears the day when it sells stock to the public, a fundamental question arises: How can the company possibly justify the rich price it hopes to get in the marketplace? However brilliant Google's technology may be -- and it's both innovative and path-breaking in many ways -- the online search and advertising company doesn't have a monopoly. And it faces plenty of competition from small and large businesses that have their own share of smart people. There's only one way the fast-growing search and media powerhouse can pull this off, and a single word sums it up: trust. More...
