Critical Flaw Found in Windows XP SP2

Critical Flaw Found in Windows XP SP2 08/21/2004 04:31 PM
Security firm Secunia has detailed a new flaw in Internet Explorer that affects users running Windows XP Service Pack 2. The vulnerability involves drag-and-drop, which can be used within a Web page to place a malicious program in the Windows startup folder.

Secunia has branded the issue "highly critical" and says it comes from "insufficient validation of drag and drop events issued from the 'Internet' zone." Users are advised to disable Active Scripting, or use a Web browser other than Internet Explorer.

The security researcher who discovered the flaw has posted proof-of-conccept code, which involves dragging an image across a Web page. But Secunia says it could be simplified to require just one mouse click. Microsoft, however, brushed off concerns over the potential issue. "Given the significant amount of user action required to execute an attack, Microsoft does not consider this to be a high risk for customers," the company said.

Trillian Vulnerability - Security Flaw
Found in Trillian IM

Trillian Vulnerability - Security Flaw
Found in Trillian IM 03/27/2005 05:55 AM
CNet news is reporting today that a potentially serious security flaw has been found in the Trillian instant messaging client.

Trillian is an instant messaging (IM) software which allows users to interact with people using many different IM services, such as AOL Instant Messenger and MSN Messenger, using just one instant messaging client (Trillian) instead of having to run each instant messenger software for each service separately.

A large number of people use Trillian, and not surprisingly, as it has been estimated that at least 25% of home users instant message with people on at least two different IM networks at the same time.

The security hole discovered in Trillian will allow a malicious hacker to shut down programs running on the target machine, and even to take control of the entire computer.

Trillian’s CEO, Scott Werndorfer, played the flaw down as being “extremely low risk", stating that the hacker would need to create a fake instant messaging software, then send a message to the Trillian user, and then have the user accept the message. More at Source.
