Does dovecot have any dictionary attack defenses yet? In the past I have had to implement defense from outside dovecot, but since dovecot is at the front lines and therefore is the first to know I'm hoping by now there is something we can set. For example, a limit on access failures per minut/hour/day or some such. If not why not?

I and some other people have problems with running the freedos image included in Ultimate Boot CD (UBCD), when using memdisk for floppy emulation. Memdisk starts booting the image and freedos shows the following menu: 0 Boot Clean 1 Boot UMBPCI (silent) 2 Boot UMBPCI (optimal) 3 Boot UMBPCI (semi-defensive) 4 Boot EMM386 (optimal) 5 Boot EMM386 (semi-defensive) 6 Boot no UMB (defensive) 7 Boot

...ediate total control of the machine? Because if they can control sshd they can tell sshd, "Allow root login (even if prohibited in sshd.conf) and accept 'foo' as the password", then the attacker can log in as root. Is it possible, even in theory, to provide a second layer of defense behind sshd to prevent the attacker from controlling the machine, if the attacker controls sshd? The "log me in as root" attack would appear to imply that an extra layer is not possible. (Note I'm not talking about extra layers of security *in front* of sshd, like a firewall tha...

You can't have it both ways. ---- Quick clipping from the case: According to SCO, the GPL (and thus also the LGPL) "is unenforceable, void and/or voidable" (Ex. 2 at 20 (Sixth Affirmative Defense)); "violates the U.S. Constitution, together with copyright, antitrust and export control laws" (Ex. 25 (Amend.

I''ve been scouring the web for suggested Rails defenses against SQL injection, but I haven''t found much on the object creation part. Certainly using attr_protected, etc., is a good way to prevent unwanted fields from being modified on the new object (if you''re passing a hash as creation parameters), but what about escaping the POSTed...

Dear All, Just a reminder that we'll be having a Birds of a Feather (BoF) session on memory safety, debugging tools, and automated defense at the LLVM Developer's Meeting today at 2:45 pm. If any of these topics interest you, please drop by! Santosh and I are especially interested in learning about how others want to use memory safety and related techniques. -- John T.

You can grab it from my home page at: http://www.dna.lth.se/~erics/software/tcp-syncookies-patch-1.gz You can also follow the pointers from my home page (see the signature) to get a very short blurb about this patch. Quick synopsys: This implements the SYN cookie defense against SYN flooding. This implementation is a full bells and whistles version of the defense worked out by myself and Dan Bernstein. The defense is only used when an attack appears to be under way. It also implements an alternative defense that I call RST cookies. RST cookies have the drawback tha...
