Re: [Full-disclosure] SSHD - PasswordAuthentication no/yes

2006-03-28 Thread Q Beukes
afaik only brute forcing can be a problem.
except of course if there is physically problems with the Password auth
code,
that too can cause a problem...

but other than that i dont think there should be.

[Full-disclosure] Secure HTTP

2006-03-23 Thread Q Beukes
Hey,

Are their any open source proxy/tunneling software that makes it
possible to surf
both HTTP/HTTPS over an SSL/HTTPS connection.

In other words I want all my http traffic to be encrypted...

Thx

Re: [Full-disclosure] strange domain name in phishing email

2006-03-15 Thread Q Beukes
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I think this would be a client side only thing.
Netcat connected fine when I have such a name (167772398 - 10.0.0.238)
as a target.

The reason I say this is because how would apache know what to do with:
Host: 167772398

It might have been a vhost, so I dont think they have support for this.

NOTE: just my thoughts

[Full-disclosure] Promiscious Device Detection

2006-03-09 Thread Q Beukes
Hey,

I am looking for linux utility that checks if a specified machine's
network device is in promiscious mode or not.

c source is prefered so I could maybe modify (if needed) it so it
actively search for
such devices and syslog such finds.

Thx

Re: [Full-disclosure] Automated Vulnerability Scanners

2006-02-24 Thread Q Beukes
no, what I was talking about was programs/algorithms that actually
scan software to find new unknown problems.

i have never heard of anything like this myself nor can't think of an
efficient way
of implementing it, yet someone claimed they exist.

I can't find any on google either?
