DNS Server Spoofed Request Amplification DDoS

The remote DNS server answers to any request. It is possible to query the name servers NS of the root zone '.' and get an answer that is bigger than the original request. By spoofing the source IP address, a remote attacker can leverage this 'amplification' to launch a denial of service attack...

Session fixation

The Math.random function in the JavaScript implementation in Mozilla Firefox 3.5.x before 3.5.10 and 3.6.x before 3.6.4, and SeaMonkey before 2.0.5, uses a random number generator that is seeded only once per browser session, which makes it easier for remote attackers to track a user, or trick a...

CVE-2008-5912

CVE-2008-5912 is an information-disclosure issue affecting Microsoft Internet Explorer. Connected scanners describe an IE information-disclosure vulnerability where a JavaScript-related function exposes a “temporary footprint” during an active user login, which could ease in-session phishing by p...
