ALERT: "How a Hacker Launches a SQL Injection Attack!"- SPI Dynamics White Paper
It's as simple as placing additional SQL commands into a Web Form input box giving hackers complete access to all your backend systems! Firewalls and IDS will not stop such attacks because SQL Injections are NOT seen as intruders. Download this *FREE* white paper from SPI Dynamics for a complete guide to protection!

---------------------
1. Metasploit 3.0 day
By Federico Biancuzzi
The Metasploit Framework is a development platform for creating security tools and exploits. Federico Biancuzzi interviewed H D Moore to discuss what's new in release 3.0, the new license of the framework, plans for features and exploits development, and the links among the bad guys and Metasploit and the law.

BugTraq ID: 23196
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2007-03-29
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/23196
Summary:
FastStone Image Viewer is prone to an unspecified buffer-overflow vulnerability. This issue occurs because the application fails to bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the user running the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service.

Currently, limited information is currently available regarding this issue. This BID will be updated as more information becomes available.

This issue affects version 2.8; other versions may also be affected.

Summary:
Microsoft Windows is prone to a vulnerability that can allow attackers to execute arbitrary remote code. This issue occurs because of a memory-corruption error caused when handling malformed cursor or icon files.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of an unsuspecting user. A successful attack can result in the compromise of affected user accounts and computers.

This issue affects Windows XP SP2 and Windows Server 2003 SP1 when running Internet Explorer 6 and 7; other versions may also be affected.

3. NaviCopa Web Server GET Request Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/23173
Summary:
IBM Lotus Domino Web Access is prone to an HTML-injection vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting victim in the context of the affected website. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and to launch other attacks.

7. SignKorea SKCommAX ActiveX Control Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
BugTraq ID: 23149
Remote: Yes
Date Published: 2007-03-26
Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/23149
Summary:
