Adverts for medication to improve male sex drive are a staple of spam mailings.

In August and September we noted a series of mailings that used the names of well-known companies, that looked just like typical phishing messages. However, instead of a phishing site the links they contained led to an advert for “male medication”.

Only one manufacturer has responded to the researchers bid to supply the data in efforts to stop production of insecure devices."

*** Bugtraq: PayPals "invalid" aksession Padding Oracle Flaw ***
---------------------------------------------
The main PayPal web site sets a cookie named "aksession" which contains a blob of base64-encoded ciphertext. This ciphertext is encrypted using a 64-bit block cipher in CBC mode and does not have any other integrity protection. Naturally, this means the aksession cookie is vulnerable to a padding oracle attack allowing full decryption and forgery.

According to a quick check with dnsviz.net, it appears that there is no DS record for the current .gov ZSK deposited with the root zone. (excerpt from: http://dnsviz.net/d/fbi.gov/dnssec/) DNSSEC relies on two types of keys each zone uses: - A "key signing key" (KSK) and - A "zone signing

Sometimes the simplest techniques can foil the complex systems created by security firms and large enterprises to detect malicious programs and files. Putting malware to sleep, waiting for a user to click, or looking for the hallmarks of a virtual machine can set off warning bells and cause a malicious program to cease running, making analysis difficult at best.
