    KeePass Password Safe is a free, open source, lightweight, and easy-to-use password manager for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X, with ports for Android, iPhone/iPad and other mobile devices. With so many passwords to remember and the need to vary passwords to protect your valuable data, it’s nice to have KeePass to manage your passwords in a secure way. KeePass puts all your passwords in a highly encrypted database and locks them with one master key or a key file. As a result, you only have to remember one single master password or select the key file to unlock the whole database. And the databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known, AES and Twofish. See our features page for details.

    **TurboVNC**
    
    High-speed, 3D-friendly, TightVNC-compatible remote desktop software
    
    TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

    **libjpeg-turbo**
    
    SIMD-accelerated libjpeg-compatible JPEG codec library
    
    libjpeg-turbo is a JPEG image codec that uses SIMD instructions (MMX, SSE2, NEON, AltiVec) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and decompression on x86, x86-64, ARM, and PowerPC systems. On such systems, libjpeg-turbo is generally 2-6x as fast as libjpeg, all else being equal. On other types of systems, libjpeg-turbo can still outperform libjpeg by a significant amount, by virtue of its highly-optimized Huffman coding routines. In many cases, the performance of libjpeg-turbo rivals that of proprietary high-speed JPEG codecs. libjpeg-turbo implements both the traditional libjpeg API as well as the less powerful but more straightforward TurboJPEG API. libjpeg-turbo also features colorspace extensions that allow it to compress from/decompress to 32-bit and big-endian pixel buffers (RGBX, XBGR, etc.), as well as a full-featured Java interface.

CVE-2005-2224: 404 Error

lpd daemon (in.lpd) in Solaris 8 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a job request with a crafted control file that is not properly handled when lpd invokes a mail program. NOTE: this might be the same vulnerability as CVE-2000-1220.

Hey,

The exploit that was attached to this message cannot be distributed..
so below is the original message sent to BUGTRAQ without the exploit.

From the exploit:

/\*
 \* remorse
 \* Solaris 8 in.lpd remote root exploit
 \* by ron1n <shellcode@hotmail.com>
 \* July 2001
 \*
 \* Written for 7DFB/TESO members and friends. Private, do not distribute
 \* negligently, etc. etc. An unpublished vulnerability is exploited. I think
 \* this is what they call 0day warez.
 \*
 \* This is not the ISS hole -- that one doesn't seem to be exploitable on the
 \* SPARC architecture. I spent a week studying all of the lp binary and library
 \* code trying to find a nice overflow that would be exploitable on SPARC. This
 \* is the best I could come up with though. I'm disappointed because it's very
 \* similar to the old SNI/NAI BSD lpd vuln and the l0pht/@stake Linux lpd vuln.
 \*
 \* There are no printer conditions that have to be met. If the system happens
 \* to be running in.lpd, consider it owned. It can be a noisy attack; other
 \* than possible syslog locations, evidence will exist under /var/spool/lp/tmp,
 \* /var/spool/lp/requests, and the mail spool directory (/tmp).
 \*
 \* The exploit targets four programs: in.lpd, lpsched adaptor, /bin/mail, and
 \* sendmail. Obviously there are going to be differences among Solaris releases
 \* and individual configurations. For instance, the Solaris 7 version of in.lpd
 \* doesn't have IPv6 support like the Solaris 8 version does, so if your IP
 \* address doesn't reverse-resolve, in.lpd will create a different directory
 \* on each release. I've handled this now in case I do a rewrite, but Solaris 7
 \* has other issues that need to be investigated. Solaris 2.6 looks even worse.
 \* If someone hooks me up with source code, I'll try to add 7 and 2.6 support.
 \*
 \* If you're not getting results, try playing around with some command line
 \* switches or some files in the exploit tarball, particularly 'script'. The
 \* system's responses, or lack thereof, can tell you everything you need for
 \* a successful exploitation.
 \*
 \* Now you too can sleep well at night knowing that there are still ways to
 \* compromise a Solaris box remotely without relying on Sun's rpc nightmare.

Subject: Solaris LPD Exploit

\[This is allegedly for an unknown vulnerability.\]

I have attached the exploit that was used against me
and then sent to me as a result of my Incidents posts.
The swarm of me-too emails leads me to believe this
is being actively exploited with the public being
none the wiser. The tar content times and the
author's timestamp place it at around two months
old.

I can only guess at the intentions for trying to keep
this below the surface. The overall depressive tone of the
exploit is as unnerving as the author's up-beat attitude
toward system intrusion, but I will admit that the author
seems to hint at deeper motives. Either way, the more
productive and mature thing to do would have been to
inform the public so that end users aren't left in the
cold with these matters.

Two people asked if the system that was compromised is x86
or sparc. It's a sparc.

Its known, its fixed in current setups

Netkit 0.08/9 telnetd do not pass any environment variables,

libc5.4 is immune, RedHat has been shipping the fixed libc5.3.12 for a long
time, and all the vendors I had security contacts for where told ages ago.
If they haven't fixed it then Im disappointed with them, they dont have
an excuse. That libc5.3.12 unpatched also has other fun bugs with buffer
overruns in libc some in the BSD stuff akin to the BSD bugs in rcmd() etc.
