Microsoft issues fix for Internet Explorer malware exploit, promises full patch by Friday
Author:
Just a few short days after identifying a security exploit in multiple versions Internet Explorer, Microsoft has issued a Windows fix it to resolve the issue, with a comprehensive update planned for this Friday. The vulnerability, which was discovered on Monday, put millions of machines at risk by allowing malware to bypass existing security protocols via a specially crafted Flash animation. While it’s exact origins remain unknown, the exploit was believed to have been propagated by the same hacker group that launched the zero-day Java vulnerability last month. While the fix it offers immediate protection, Microsoft urges all Internet Explorer users to download and install their forthcoming security update when it becomes available via…

Microsoft to patch critical Internet Explorer 9 vulnerability next week
Author: Tyler Evans
Microsoft issued its advanced bulletin notification for its July 2012 Patch Tuesday this week. The software maker says it will release nine patches in total next Tuesday, with three of them rated critical and six listed as important. Out of the three critical patches, one will address a vulnerability that affects Internet Explorer 9. “It doesn’t affect IE9′s predecessors, which means that it was introduced in the latest iteration of the browser,” explains Marcus Carey, security researcher at Rapid7. “If you are running IE9, you should definitely apply this patch.”
The two other critical bulletins could allow malicious users to remotely execute code on Windows operating systems, including all supported server and client versions. “Many…

Adobe changes tune on CS5 updates, won’t seek paid CS6 upgrade to patch vulnerabilities
Author: Stefanie Jenkins
Things have gotten interesting in the world of CS updates. Recently, Computerworld reported that Adobe had informed folks using an older version of its famed Creative Suite — CS5 and CS5.5, to be exact — they’d have to shell out the CS6 upgrade fee in order to get a fix for some recently discovered bugs. Apparently, Adobe took notice to its customers’ dissatisfaction and updated its initial blog post with a changed tune, stating, “We are in the process of resolving these vulnerabilities in Adobe Photoshop CS5.x, and will update this Security Bulletin once the patch is available.” The same is true for both Illustrator and Flash. This kerfuffle started after Adobe handed out warnings for eight “critical” vulnerabilities found in certain versions of the three applications — some of which are said to be exploitable and could potentially be used to “take control of the affected system.” We’ll see how it all plays out over the upcoming days, but in the meantime hit the links below to see if you need to take any action.

Four Windows bulletins for November Patch Tuesday, one critical
Author: Brian McKinnell
Microsoft announced on Thursday that it plans to issue four Windows related bulletins in its November Patch Tuesday.
The four bulletins fix a variety of problems in all supported versions of Windows. Windows 7 is affected by all four bulletins and the only critical bulletin, a remote code execution flaw, also affects Windows 7.
Microsoft published eight bulletins in October to fix problems in Internet Explorer, Windows, Silverlight and others. Two of the October bulletins were marked critical. Microsoft is not planning to release a patch for a recently discovered critical Windows kernel issue. The vulnerability was discovered as part of the Duqu malware attacks. The software giant revealed on Tuesday that it was working on a patch for a flaw found in the Duqu malware. Microsoft issued a temporary workaround on Thursday to mitigate potential attacks using the vulnerability. Microsoft’s temporary workaround can be applied to any Windows system. The company has provided a Fix it that allows end users and enterprise customers to quickly deploy the fix.
Microsoft’s November Patch Tuesday will commence on November 8 at 10AM PST.

HTC confirms security hole, says patch is incoming
Author: Dave Adams
HTC held true to its promise to look into the security vulnerability that surfaced over the weekend, an apparent glitch that allows any app requesting internet access to take a peek at a user account information, GPS location, system logs, and other potentially private data. While HTC assured us that user data isn’t at risk of being harmed by its own software, a third party malware app could exploit the security flaw and cause some trouble. The outfit is already building a patch, and will ship it out in an over the air update after a short testing period with its carrier partners. Until then? HTC recommends steering clear of apps from publishers you don’t trust. Hit the break to see the official statement.

Microsoft accidentally publishes Patch Tuesday bulletins early

Microsoft Patch Tuesday
Microsoft published details about a number of its upcoming Patch Tuesday fixes on Friday.
The software giant accidentally published the details of five bulletins that the company plans to release on September 13. PCMag was able to snag the details on all five patches:
- MS11-070: Vulnerability in WINS Could Allow Elevation of Privilege— affects all Windows Server versions except Itanium. WINS improperly handles certain specifically crafted data on the loopback address. It’s not clear to me how difficult this would be to exploit. On the one hand it requires valid logon credentials and the ability to log on locally, but Terminal Server users would have those. WINS is not necessary and may not be installed, but then again it may. Note that this is a privilege escalation vulnerability for users directly on the server, so if it were exploited the consequences could be quite severe.
- MS11-071: Vulnerability in Windows Components Could Allow Remote Code Execution—This is another instance of the “insecure library loading” bug which came out last summer and which we knew would affect numerous Windows components and 3rd party software. The components in this case are the Display Panning CPL Extension (deskpan.dll), Microsoft EAPHost Authenticator Service, Microsoft Management Console (MMC), Folder Redirection, the Japanese Input Method Editor (IME), and HyperTerminal. All versions of Windows are affected.
- MS11-072: Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Excel Could Allow Remote Code Execution—This bulletin describes 5 vulnerabilities, some of which affect all versions of Excel, including all Mac versions. Certain Microsoft server applications are also affected, specifically SharePoint Server and Office Web Apps. All of the vulnerabilities come from improper parsing of specially-crafted Excel files.
- MS11-073: Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office Could Allow Remote Code Execution—Two vulnerabilities affect Windows versions of Office. One is another insecure library loading vulnerability and the other an error in the parsing of specially-crafted Word documents.
- MS11-074: Vulnerabilities in Microsoft SharePoint Could Allow Elevation of Privilege—Six vulnerabilities in various Microsoft server products, principally SharePoint, could allow elevation of privilege and information disclosure..

Steven has provided iREB to top bar for future re-runs within sn0wbreeze.
Being a “Tethered” jailbreak, you need to boot your device via iBooty except iPhone 3GS (old bootroms), which is untethered. However, the steps to jailbreak your iOS devices remain same as mentioned before.

No Comments »Sony about to issue PS3 update with ‘minor,’ mysterious security patch
Author: Charity Woods
Sony just mentioned on its official PlayStation blog that the PS3 is about to get a “minor” update, v3.56. With Sony about to host a press event in Tokyo, it would be nice if we were getting some new functionality for our update timeout, but apparently all it adds is a security patch (just like 3.55), and for some reason we get the impression that this “security patch” is less about defense against baddies and more about trying to shore up the PS3 jailbreak that’s currently running rampant. Of course, there are some serious security concerns when it comes to jailbroken PS3s, like the fact that they allow some serious cheating in select multiplayer games, so a truly competent, non-user-hostile security patch wouldn’t be all bad. We guess we’ll see what we get when the update lands, presumably later today.

PS3 update v3.55 adds ‘a security patch,’ nothing else
Author: Tiffany Shoman
Another day, another annoying distraction when you turn on your PlayStation 3. Prepare to be prompted to update your machine, version 3.55 hitting the internets and offering a single thing: “a security patch.” No word on exactly which holes are being spackled over or how long it’ll take for modders to drill them back out again, but be sure to pledge your allegiance and update today, so that you can be better prepared to update again tomorrow.
