I have found it on some security portal. It is interresting to know that our faithful cPanel has some vulnerabilities.
One more thing. While I was experimenting with the code, I found out that the server is secure if it is using an updated version of cPanel. And in Trap17's case I am sure that we are secure :-)
I was wondering whether one could hack his way into cPanel and exploit the security loopholes.
Okay, first of all I would like to clarify my intentions. I have no malicious intention whatsoever
and I'm not a hacker, i.e. I dunno any programming languages at all. I have a hosting account at
a certain post to host forum, meaning to say, the admin helped me create a cPanel hosting account. I
know the username but I dunno the password so I requested it from the admin. He told me and I tried
it, but still I can't log into my account. I guess the password's wrong.....
I just got a new laptop, and of course it's loaded with vista. Everything works awesomly!
(my last PC was from 2001, BIG DIFF.) But the damned thing compulsivly and automatically sets
Internet Explorer to my default browser and won't let me change certain things which browsers
will typically handle. 've manually changed it so Firefox handles all the stuff except HTTPS
and what not (CANNOT CHANGE W/O HACK!), but IE just bumps in every time I want to click a link
from a non-browser based file /sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="....
On monday it was reported that Quicktime 7.2 and 7.3 versions come with a new exploit in which
malware could on to a person's computer through streaming videos. They only mention that XP and
Vista are the only affect systems and no word came about on the Mac operating system. They mention
that a buffer overflow bug was made in which it "contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in
the way Quicktime handles the RTSP Content-Type header." For those who don't know what RTSP is,
RTSP is the Real-Time Streaming Protocol which apple uses for its QuickTime softw....
SOURCE Well it seems that Microsoft found a huge hole in MSN Messenger that was bad enough that
they want people to upgrade to the current Messenger which is Live 8.1 or something like that. As
for details on the problem they just said the following, "..which let hackers embed malicious code
in Web chat invitations to users." and that they found this problem in "6.2, 7.0 and 7.5, as well as
Windows Live Messenger 8.0." Although it was interesting to know that people were actually
complaining about Live Messenger being a resource hog, well the last time I check msn w....

A pair days ago I read this new on Slashdot: cPanel Exploit Used to Circulate IE Exploit
QUOTE "In a dangerous combination of unpatched exploits, hackers have used a previously
undiscovered security hole in cPanel to hack the servers of a hosting company and use hundreds of
hijacked sites to infect Internet Explorer users with malware using the unpatched VML exploit.
cPanel, whose hosting automation software is used by many large hosting companies, has issued a fix.
It's a local exploit, meaning the attacker must control a cPanel account on the target hosti....
A friend of mine was temporarily banned from the computers at my school a while ago after he
accidentially found a way into Task Manager, which is disabled on our network. He has had his
permissions restored now, but has no idea why he got banned in the first place. However, recently he
explained what he did to me, and I tested it. I soon found out that, by accident, we had both
discovered that there is a Security Exploit in networking Windows XP Professional. The exploit is
to do with network permissions. Windows XP recieves the permission data from the network as soon....
QUOTE Earlier this week, I blogged about a site doing a bunch of different exploits, depending

In the wake of hurricane Katrina, several online scams have begun to circulate the Internet,

Recently, an exploit has been found out that allows people to use their cookies to gain access to
the ACP. And Firefox assists with it /ohmy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle'
alt='ohmy.gif' /> ! Basically what happens that is when you visitthe phpBB forum, it logs a
cookie containing your Session ID (Basically who and when you are). What it does, after much
decoding and encoding, is allows you to replace your SID with the admin's, thus enabling them to
gain access. To fix this, upgrade to the latest version of phpBB, 2.0.13. Dun dun dunnnnn! B....
