several issues in SQLite (+ catching up on several other bugs)

Posted by Michal Zalewski on Apr 14

SQLite is probably the most popular embedded database in use today; it

Safari iOS/OS X/Windows cookie access vulnerability

Posted by Jouko Pynnonen on Apr 13

*Overview*
The 4/8/2015 security updates from Apple included a patch for a Safari

[Tool] nsec3map v0.3 – DNSSEC Zone Enumerator

Posted by An Onion on Apr 10

nsec3map is a DNS zone enumerator that makes use of DNSSEC NSEC or NSEC3

useful in cases where the nameserver blocks the direct querying of NSEC
records.

In NSEC3 mode, the tool finds a domain name which is not covered
by any received…
