CERT Advisory 7/22/2003: Mozilla Root Compromise

[Taco_Is_Ghey]

CERT has issued an advisory related to a root hole in all versions of Mozilla through the 1.5 beta, exploiting an unchecked buffer in the DNS reply parser. Exploits have been released publicly and are currently being used to compromise machines and propagate further attacks. All users of the Mozilla web browser are encouraged to upgrade now. The Gaping Security Hole is pictured in Figure 1.

You deserve a funny for that.

Just a thought

[Raul654]

When I read that, the first thing I thought of was the Simpsons episode featuring Tomacco where Homer is offered $150 million and says he won't take anything less than $150 billion.

Re:stats?

[tupps]

And I would therefore assume that it would be shown to the RIAA accountant who would work out it has cost the economy 27 billion trillion dollars in lost revenue?

You forgot to factor in that each of those computers has at least three people in the immediate family and 6.3 friends who could be watching it be used!

Quasy Hussein dead at 39

[Anonymous Coward]

I just heard the news on the radio, Quasy Hussein has been found dead in his home in Mosul with gun shot wounds. Whether you liked or not his barbaric ways, he was truly a Iraqi icon

Re:Quasy Hussein dead at 39

[Anonymous Coward]

found dead in his house after it took 200+ ereet US special forces and other assorted military (caterers perhaps?) to react to "walk in" intelligence to kill him. and even then it took a 6 hours, helicopter gunship support.

U S A! U S A!

Fuck man, your goddamn army cant even take out 2 brothers, a bodyguard and a 14 year old boy without going in with 50 to 1 odds AND hi-power helicopter -gunship support.

U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A! U S A!

If the RIAA was counting, all those machines would have been pwn3d by Orrin Hatch by now.
