This is not a new discovery, in fact, we released an advisory about it in December of 1998. The advisory can be found here: http://www.caughq.org/files/pub/A dvisories/000005. This advisory was sent at the time of release to Yahoo, who promptly fixed their search engine, and was also sent to the BugTraq mailing list where it was promptly denied posting because "This isn't a hack." This has been around for quite a long time, I guess it just takes a CERT advisory to make people take notice. NOTE: This is a duplicate post, the original was posted in reply to the wrong post

Forgot to add the link to HD's comment on the article (with attack details):

The quote in the original article has since been corrected (removed) by the original source, because it was a completely falsified quote.
