In this paper the author demonstrates how spinning hard-drives' service areas can be used to hide data from the operating-system (or any software using the standard OS's API or the standard ATA commands to access the hard-drive). These reserved areas are used by hard-drive vendors to store modules that in turn operate the drive, and in a sense, together with the ROM, serve as the hard-drive’s internal storage and OS. By sending Vendor Specific Commands (VSCs) directly to the hard-drive, one can manipulate these areas to read and write data that are otherwise inaccessible. This should not be confused with DCO or HPA which can be easily detected, removed and accessed via standard ATA commands.
56c7d0d4187efd4b11c8476ff27ccc113b0205c32f936a78c17c88cafa947b3dFreeBSD Security Advisory - BIND 9 is an implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. The named(8) daemon is an Internet Domain Name Server. DNS64 is an IPv6 transition mechanism that will return a synthesized AAAA response even if there is only an A record available. Due to a software defect a crafted query can cause named(8) to crash with an assertion failure.
7a8b0adfcf6016b307c0e17b5c45fdec29ac76e9591aba0e5450056bd38ad916FreeBSD Security Advisory - The glob(3) function is a pathname generator that implements the rules for file name pattern matching used by the shell. GLOB_LIMIT is supposed to limit the number of paths to prevent against memory or CPU attacks. The implementation however is insufficient. An attacker that is able to exploit this vulnerability could cause excessive memory or CPU usage, resulting in a denial of service.
f2e502ca64a6aa303c90908a48c574ac08e6abef1995c2a730359cea8c7e9fecBricks is a web application security learning platform built on PHP and MySQL. The project focuses on variations of commonly seen application security issues. Each 'Brick' has some sort of security issue which can be leveraged manually or using automated software tools. The mission is to 'Break the Bricks' and thus learn the various aspects of web application security. Bricks is a completely free and open source project brought to you by OWASP.

dfd8885731a743f54a2b98717b42b9119da28cb80197e4c3bcd619044a40a31fRed Hat Security Advisory 2013-0270-01 - The Jakarta Commons HttpClient component can be used to build HTTP-aware client applications. The Jakarta Commons HttpClient component did not verify that the server hostname matched the domain name in the subject's Common Name or subjectAltName field in X.509 certificates. This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to spoof an SSL server if they had a certificate that was valid for any domain name. All users of jakarta-commons-httpclient are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct this issue. Applications using the Jakarta Commons HttpClient component must be restarted for this update to take effect.

XULRunner provides the XUL Runtime environment for Mozilla Firefox. Several flaws were found in the processing of malformed web content. A web page containing malicious content could cause Firefox to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firefox. It was found that, after canceling a proxy server's authentication prompt, the address bar continued to show the requested site's address. An attacker could use this flaw to conduct phishing attacks by tricking a user into believing they are viewing a trusted site.
7ba6d8ae97e003c7ecb415a182499f52ce0de1d8723d72ffae4b6ec98bd321a9Since 2004, Mandiant has investigated computer security breaches at hundreds of organizations around the world. The majority of these security breaches are attributed to advanced threat actors referred to as the "Advanced Persistent Threat" (APT). They first published details about the APT in their January 2010 M-Trends report. As they stated in the report, their position was that "The Chinese government may authorize this activity, but there's no way to determine the extent of its involvement." Now, three years later, they have the evidence required to change their assessment. The details they have analyzed during hundreds of investigations have convinced them that the groups conducting these activities are based primarily in China and that the Chinese Government is aware of them.

It can be used to build both web service clients and servers. Apache Axis did not verify that the server hostname matched the domain name in the subject's Common Name or subjectAltName field in X.509 certificates. This could allow a man-in-the-middle attacker to spoof an SSL server if they had a certificate that was valid for any domain name. All users of axis are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct this issue. Applications using Apache Axis must be restarted for this update to take effect.
