Linux Kernel TCP Sequence Number Generation Security Weakness

The Linux kernel is prone to a security weakness related to TCP sequence number generation. Attackers can exploit this issue to inject arbitrary packets into TCP sessions using a brute-force attack. An attacker may use this vulnerability to create a denial of service condition or a...

Secure Boot in Windows 8 Worries Researchers

Windows 8, like Windows 7 and Vista before it, is being touted as the most secure version of Windows ever. In past releases, many of the security improvements have come through exploit mitigations such as ASLR and DEP and better software security practices during development. In Windows 8, howeve...

Nmap NSE net: ipidseq

Classifies a host's IP ID sequence test for susceptibility to idle scan. Sends six probes to obtain IP IDs from the target and classifies them similarly to Nmap's method. This is useful for finding suitable zombies for Nmap's idle scan '-sI' as Nmap itself doesn't provide a way to scan for these...
