(Sorry, third time -- last one, promise, just giving it a subject line!) OK, a second machine hosted at the same hosting company has also apparently been hacked. Since 2 of out of 3 machines hosted at that company have now been hacked, but this hasn't happened to any of the other 37 dedicated servers that I've got hosted at other hosting companies (also CentOS, same version or almost),

My home machine has IP 50.54.225.130. I have (for the purposes of this experiment) one remote machine at www.peacefire.org (69.72.177.140) and another at www.junkwhale.com. When I'm logged in to peacefire, I run this perl script to open an ssh connection to junkwhale and run a command: my $hostname="www.junkwhale.com"; my $server_password = "[redacted!]"; use Net::SFTP;

If an attacker finds an exploit to take control of httpd, they're still blocked in part by the fact that httpd runs as the unprivileged apache user and hence can't write any root-owned files on the system, unless the attacker also knows of a second attack that lets apache escalate its privilege. Basically correct? What about sshd -- assuming that the attacker can connect to sshd at

Ever since someone told me that one of my servers might have been hacked (not the most recent instance) because I wasn't applying updates as soon as they became available, I've been logging in and running "yum update" religiously once a week until I found out how to set the yum-updatesd service to do the equivalent automatically (once per hour, I think). Since then, I've

I received this piece of code in a patch that turns on the FreeBSD http filtering. I completely missed that it calls /sbin/sysctl directly which means I''m slipping on my auditing. def configure_socket_options case RUBY_PLATFORM when /linux/ # 9 is currently TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT $tcp_defer_accept_opts = [Socket::SOL_TCP, 9, 1] $tcp_cork_opts =

Hi, I'm new to Asterisk and have a couple of basic questions. We're interested in using * simply as a SIP <-> PSTN gateway using a T400P connected to one or more ISDN PRI lines (instead of using a Cisco box which would cost more and come with no hackable source code :-) First, is Asterisk's SIP stack up to date and fully functional with respect to the SIP protocol? Are there

Hi all I thought I would let you people know of a script that I coded that facilitates security patch updating on FreeBSD. When I wrote it I decided to called it Quickpatch for some reason even though because its source based its not necessarily the least bit quick at all :) I had kept it for my self for a while but I was recently provoked to release it as it could do greater good being out

http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/SELinux says: "Access is only allowed between similar types, so Apache running as httpd_t can read /var/www/html/index.html of type httpd_sys_content_t." however the doc doesn't define what "similar types" means. I assumed it just meant "beginning with the same prefix". However that can't be right because on my system with

I thought this would interest a few people on the list - asterisk enabled home security video recording dvr anyone? http://deancollinsblog.blogspot.com/2007/09/bug-labs-opensource-hardware .html I had a really interesting conference call today about a new startup called http://www.buglabs.net <http://www.buglabs.net/> They are looking to introduce a modular set of

Hi all, There are still places available on the following courses. For more detailed information and a registration form please contact: training@mango-solutions.com or visit our website at www.mango-solutions.com. * Introduction to R: 6th - 7th April, Birmingham UK * R for Actuaries: 20th - 21st April, Frankfurt Germany * R for Pharmacometrics: 4th - 5th

We have fairly large and complex code to handle relocations in Writer.cpp, Target.cpp, OutputSections.cpp and InputSections.cpp. They started with simple code, but because each patch added a small piece of code to the existing one, it is becoming out of control now. For example, we have lots of entangled boolean flags in the functions that interfere with each other in an obscure fashion. Even I

Hi all, Please excuse my newbie status I need help in configuring a mediatrix 1204 PSTN gateway with asterisk. Basically each FXO port is configured with a SIP username and automatic transfer extension, which should transfer incoming calls to an asterisk extension. I created extensions corresponding to the FXO port SIP usernames. Port 1 - SIP username - 21383396 - call forward to - 300
