Security Briefing: January 30th

newspapera.jpg

Some woman showed up on my doorstep this morning looking for her lost dog. The dog is named “Toto” or something. Heh. The wind here is blowing like a mad fiend. I’m curious if all of my shingles will still be there when all is said and done.

I’m a little embarrassed today. The Tripwire advisory that I sent out to the world had the wrong URL. Sigh. I have set up a catch for the misdirected folks. Sorry all and thanks to everyone who emailed to let me know. I do appreciate it. As an FYI I have 3 more vulnerabilities that are set for release at the end of February or shortly thereafter.

And now, the news…

  1. Barracuda defends open-source antivirus from patent attack
  2. Security of Voting Machine in German State Election Questioned
  3. 38,000 Social Security Numbers Potentially Exposed After Theft
  4. Security call after laptop theft affects 60,000 Scots
  5. Secure Computing Launches New PCI Initiative
  6. Dissident’s Arrest Hints at Olympic Crackdown
  7. O’Hare gets device to take all 10 fingerprints of foreign visitors to Chicago
  8. Giving Social Security data
