@Simon We'd frequently do challenge-response authentication with my missus. It goes like 1) me begging 2) me being rejected in various humorous ways 3) missus authentication successful
@Simon Eh. Still, there's 40+ people out there who now have eyes on the topic that may have otherwise not. Unfortunately, that's not really increased contributions on the answer.
@Iszi Well, the point you've raised in the comments is valid. However, I bet that even if the "question" on meta would be have been opened, there wouldn't have been much more activity on your SE "question".
It's kind of hard to find official statements from products/OS admitting the vulnerability or every single version that is affected.
For instance, I wanted to add something about OS X but there's no official statement by Apple thus no list of affected versions. Therefore, I cannot post an answer.
Your idea in theory is very good but practically, it doesn't end up well.
@Simon Someone posted links to an Ask Different question about that.
You don't necessarily need vendor statements to confirm whether a system is affected. Reputable third-party research is useful, too. Vendor confirmation is only really needed to state patch availability. And I believe (haven't looked at the Ask Different answers yet) I saw something about Apple releasing patches elsewhere.
I think @jrg was volunteering to test Ubuntu earlier...
I've never played around with Damn Vulnerable Linux. I'm sure it includes a Shellshock-vulnerable version of Bash. Does it also have an exploitable website pre-configured?
that reminds me of a bad descision i made, instead of getting a MS Surface pro, i got a regular one with Windows 8.1 RT, so i can't install other browsers then a tablet version of IE on it ;~;
but its touch screen freindly, i have to gve it that..
My galaxy note 2 had been infected by a virus called FBI virus and fortunately i managed to remove it. But the problem is that all my files are encrypted ... how can I recover my data and access to them? thanx
@Lighty Yeah, anything with data on it. A couple of months ago there was an epidemic on iPhones in Australia, for some reason.
So, I've seen people follow some wacky, inconvenient schemes in order to try to protect their privacy and prevent tracking, but this has to take the cake.
"For personal reasons, he [Richard Stallman] generally does not browse the web with an active connection on his personal computer; rather, he uses wget and reads the fetched pages from his e-mail mailbox, claiming to limit direct access via browsers to a few sites such as his own or those related to his work with GNU and the FSF."
there was a company in this complex with gets appointed by a judge in court of a person who has lots of debt, doesnt pay, and loans more and keeps spending, that helps them get out and supports them with info, and is given the "power" of what he can spend per day/week etc.
seems a person that was appointed to them flipped tables n shit and started a fight
now THATS something to wake up to
what was more exiting i poked an officer and got to sit in the lobby where they were woring and calming down the person that was so worked up, i want to grow in the IT towards the police force, so i was really interested x3
I'm trying to install GWT plugin for Eclipse. The Google manual
says among other things
Eclipse indeed shows that message during installation. The questions are:
What exactly does that message mean? Is there a possibility for an attacker to substitute downloaded files to do evil things with ...
it's pretty odd to say the least, I've never before noticed these hops and from what I understand SE doesn't host anything in Washington DC either, I thought they're either in NY or Oregon, and most likely now NY alone, assuming they're done fiddling with those servers in Oregon that caused so many problems for them
Also, why would the traffic bounce so much on a single server farm that's nowhere close to source or destination?
@jrg Oh, it's a fine idea. We just need proper documentation (e.g.: screenshots, etc.)
I'm sure there's plenty of orgs out there with deprecated versions of Ubuntu still running. I know some that are still using Windows 3.1x or 2000 for certain applications.
well you could do it on a host that's not behind the firewall but still physically local, that would improve your scan time and still be equal to doing it from a remote location
@Simon If you have inside access to the network, just quickly run netstat and then check the firewall rules that cover the host in which you're interested.
@Adnan So far, the interviewer is actually nice. When the guy's answer is vague, he asks more questions about the very same subject to get more information.
