.Kompressor Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Rumor of Internet 'Super' Exploit By Larry Seltzer April 18, 2004 An unconfirmed report from the Internet Storm Center at The SANS Institute indicates the possibility of exploits circulating that target the vulnerabilities patched just last week by Microsoft Corp. The report, titled "Possible combined exploits of MS vulnerabilities," says that there is no general outbreak but that the group is hearing rumors of "super" exploits that "may target several of the vulnerabilities announced by Microsoft on Tuesday." http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1569852,00.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dduardo Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 OpenBSD is not affected: Date: Tue, 20 Apr 2004 12:57:12 -0600 From: Theo de Raadt <deraadt@cvs.openbsd.org> [snip] In the OpenBSD case, this is something not to worry about. For what they discuss, OpenBSD handles this extremely well. We'll explain more in a week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Kompressor Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 hey at least your have been alerted ahead of time instead of after the fact. ;) unless some of you prefer to fix your systems after they have been intercepted. Some people are never satisfied. one minute they fuss about Microsoft is not issuing patches as soon as a flaw is found, and some say not enough warning when they become aware of the flaw. But open your eyes and read. Microsoft, Computer Magazine news sites, SANS, CERT, or the new Homeland always does it's best to alert you before these exploits become a serious problem. So I think you should be thankful instead of complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
