Something about shoe makers children having no shoes and all that…

An attacker can remotly crash without user interaction, any Vista/Windows 7 machine with SMB enable.

Windows Xp, 2k, are NOT affected as they dont have this driver.

Not much to say on this other than let’s hope MS gets their act together. Coding a old bug into a new OS doesn’t build much confidence…

Maybe… http://anthelmintics.net/2009/08/28/new-attack-cracks-common-wi-fi-encryption-in-a-minute/ http://anthelmintics.net/2009/08/28/new-attack-cracks-common-wi-fi-encryption-in-a-minute/#comments Fri, 28 Aug 2009 18:51:33 +0000 Admin http://anthelmintics.net/?p=73 The practical real-world implications are not that dire at the moment; best to upgrade to WPA2/AES as a precaution. Only a matter of time before this becomes weaponized and the pasty faced Marilyn Manson look a like down the street is using your WiFi network for god only knows what…

Computer scientists in Japan say they’ve developed a way to break the WPA encryption system used in wireless routers in about one minute.

The attack gives hackers a way to read encrypted traffic sent between computers and certain types of routers that use the WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) encryption system. The attack was developed by Toshihiro Ohigashi of Hiroshima University and Masakatu Morii of Kobe University, who plan to discuss further details at a technical conference set for Sept. 25 in Hiroshima.

Last November, security researchers first showed how WPA could be broken, but the Japanese researchers have taken the attack to a new level, according to Dragos Ruiu, organizer of the PacSec security conference where the first WPA hack was demonstrated. “They took this stuff which was fairly theoretical and they’ve made it much more practical,” he said.

If you are unsure of the legitimacy of an app it might not be a good idea to install it. Try to stick with shareware aggregate sites like C|Net’s Download.com etc. Even then there is no guarantee malware won’t slip in unoticed…
