IBM ISS X-Force recently reported multiple vulnerabilities in Trend Micro ServerProtect. As Trend Micro claims to have fixed the vulnerabilities, which X-Force disagrees with, X-Force issued a blog as well to clarify some issues.

strongSwan is a complete IPsec and IKEv1 implementation for Linux 2.4 and 2.6 kernels. It interoperates with most other IPsec-based VPN products. It is a descendant of the discontinued FreeS/WAN project. The focus of the strongSwan project is on strong authentication mechanisms using X.509 public key certificates and optional secure storage of private keys on smartcards through a standardized PKCS#11 interface. A unique feature is the use of X.509 attribute certificates to implement advanced access control schemes based on group memberships.
A collection of shellcodes for various platforms such as bsd-x86, linux-x86, sco-x86, and solaris-x86. This project contains a set of assembly components for proof of concept codes on different operating systems and architectures. These components were carefully designed and implemented for maximum reliability, following strict coding standards and requirements, such as system call invocation standards, position independent, register independent and zero free code. A special attention was put on code length when designing and implementing them, resulting in the most reliable and shortest codes for such purpose available today.
This PDF document holds a single paged scan of an internally distributed mail from German telecommunications company T-Systems (Deutsche Telekom), revealing over two dozen secret IP address ranges in use by the German intelligence service Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND).
PySumpas is a simple, graphical password generating utility. Using the Python Cryptography Toolkit and Damien Miller's py-bcrypt, it generates a hash or cipher from user input. The resulting output, in part or entirety, can be used as a secure password.
The Metasploit Framework is an advanced open-source platform for developing, testing, and using exploit code. Metasploit is used by network security professionals to perform penetration tests, system administrators to verify patch installations, product vendors to perform regression testing, and security researchers world-wide. The framework is written in the Ruby programming language and includes components written in C and assembler.
Tor-ramdisk is an i686 uClibc-based micro Linux distribution whose only purpose is to host a Tor server in an environment that maximizes security and privacy. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. Security is enhanced by employing a monolithically compiled GRSEC/PAX patched kernel and hardened system tools. Privacy is enhanced by turning off logging at all levels so that even the Tor operator only has access to minimal information. Finally, since everything runs in ephemeral memory, no information survives a reboot, except for the Tor configuration file and the private RSA key which may be exported/imported by FTP.
RFIDIOt is a python library for exploring RFID devices. It currently drives a couple of RFID readers made by ACG, called the HF Dual ISO and the LFX. Includes sample programs to read/write tags and the beginnings of library routines to handle the data structures of specific tags like MIFARE(r). This is the Windows version.

Dynamic Port Scanner - The sole idea of the Dynamic Port Scanner (DPS) is to provide a reliable spoofed source IP port scanner. The spoofed source IP is dynamically generated at run time and it varies for every scan packet; every scan packet carries a random spoofed source IP. Traditionally, a port scan with a spoofed source IP has been considered unreliable due to the fact that reply packets would not reach back the scanning system. However, the technique used by DPS ensures the reliability of such spoofed scan.
MultiInjector is an automatic SQL injection utility. It uses a list of URI addresses to test parameter manipulation. Once a vulnerable parameter has been found, a signature-evasive SQL injection is performed in order to achieve arbitrary OS command execution and automatic defacement on database server. Written in Python.
Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2008-233 - A heap overflow was found in the CDDB retrieval code of libcdaudio, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code. In addition, the fixes for were not applied to newer libcdaudio packages as shipped with Mandriva Linux, so the patch to fix that issue has been applied to 2008.1 and 2009.0 (this was originally fixed in MDKSA-2005:075). This issue is a buffer overflow flaw found by Joseph VanAndel. Corporate 3.0 has this fix already applied. The updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues.
The Visitor Messages add-on for vBulletin version 3.7.3 suffers from cross site scripting and cross site request forgery vulnerabilities. This is a worm exploit that takes advantage of these issues.
HP Security Bulletin - Potential security vulnerabilities have been identified with HP OpenView Network Node Manager (OV NNM).The vulnerabilities could be exploited remotely to allow cross site scripting (XSS).
A vulnerability allows remote attackers to retrieve arbitrary files on systems with vulnerable installations of EMC Control Center SAN Manager. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists in the SAN Manager Master Agent service (msragent.exe) which listens by default on TCP port 10444. While processing SST_SENDFILE requests the service does not validate the requestor allowing any remote attacker to download arbitrary files.
A vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on systems with vulnerable installations of EMC Control Center SAN Manager. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists in the SAN Manager Master Agent service (msragent.exe) which listens by default on TCP port 10444. While processing SST_CTGTRANS requests the process copies packet data into a fixed length stack buffer. Exploitation allows for arbitrary code execution under the context of the SYSTEM user.
