*** Mozilla Firefox for Android file: Protocol Lets Remote Users Obtain Potentially Sensitive Information in Certain Cases ***
---------------------------------------------
 A vulnerability was reported in Mozilla Firefox for Android. A remote user can obtain potentially sensitive information from the target user's system in certain cases.
A remote user can create a specially crafted 'file:' URL that, when loaded by the target user, will access a local file in the Firefox profile directory and copy the data to the SD card without user intervention. A local application can then access the data.

*** Exploit PHP's mail() to get remote code execution ***
---------------------------------------------
While searching around the web for new nifty tricks I stumbled across this post about how to get remote code exeution exploiting PHP's mail() function. First, I must say that this is only going to happen under some really rare circustances. Never the less, it's really something to think about and keep an eye out for. I will explain an example scenario which I think could be a real life scenario later in this article.

*** Tests compare Mac OS X anti-malware products ***
---------------------------------------------
Every day, independent test lab AV-TEST.org captures more than 400,000 new malware samples for Windows and 5,000 new samples for Android. For the Mac they identify less than 100 per month. But there is malware out there for the Mac and it does hit users in the real world, if less often and less intensely than on the PC. ... Thats why AV-TEST just completed a test of 18 products in this space
