Mailing List del Fortunae LUG ============================= Secondo me, uno che scrive un advisory in questo modo o è matto di suo oppure ha un esaurimento nervoso. :-DDD Il post viene da Bugtraq e descrive una vulnerabilità in una DLL per l'esecuzione di file MIDI che può portare all'esecuzione di codice arbitrario. Description: A little over six hundred years ago, in a quaint German hamlet called Hamelin, the Pied Piper proved to the townsfolk that he could take control of their rodents and children with just a song. Turns out the same thing works on Windows. E ancora: Technical Description: Modern folklore contends that some bands used to inject subliminal messages into their music by recording spoken commands or phrases and dubbing them backwards into the track. Although these allegations and the effectiveness of the technique were never proven conclusively, it is known that computers running a vulnerable version of QUARTZ.DLL will happily do whatever they're instructed to do without litigation, as long as the commands in the MIDI music are in machine language. MA ROTFL!!! :-DDD -- #include <best/regards.h> BlueRaven Apparently a teacher has been arrested in the UK in possession of compasses, protractors, and straight edge rulers. It is claimed he is a member of the Al Gebra movement bearing weapons of math instruction. -- Steve Reich
