One of Google's latest features can be manipulated to spread malware, a pair of researchers said Wednesday at the Black Hat conference in Las Vegas. DNS cache poisoning is not just for web browsers anymore. According to researcher Dan Kaminsky, there are a variety of programs that make requests of DNS servers, including games and a number of desktop applications. The memory protections in Windows Vista are largely ineffective at preventing browser exploitation. The ACCC has released the latest edition of "The little black book of scams", a user friendly guide that draws attention to a wide variety of scams regularly targeting Australian consumers and businesses in areas such as online, over the phone and door-to-door. Mobile threats were considered the next major security issue by IT professionals who attended the Black Hat conference in Las Vegas last week, according to a survey released today by Symantec. Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) phone systems relying on so-called "soft phone" software are open to thousands of potential vulnerabilities, researchers at Sipera Systems' said at the annual Black Hat conference last week in Las Vegas. New tools have been discovered that allow a hacker to steal confidential information from wi-fi hotspots, security researchers have warned. The Black hat security conference held in Las Vegas last week experienced a major problem – in the shape of three French journalists. When researcher Dan Kaminsky reveals details behind the major DNS protocol vulnerability next month at Black Hat, it may not be such a surprise anymore. A recently disclosed Black Hat hacker technique for reverse engineering intrusion prevention system (IPS) data poses a “serious risk” for thousands of enterprises, Gartner has warned.

Security vendors have warned of an increase in cybercrime during the holiday season. Google's Chrome web-browser restricts privileges and stops access to ‘bad’ sites in what the company claims is a layered approach to security. Cybercriminals are stealing bank login details from Australian online bankers and selling the data on European black markets for as much as €550 ($913). Debian Linux got a bit of a black eye this week with the announcement that a nasty cryptographic vulnerability exists in its version of the OpenSSL package. Security experts are warning of socially engineered threats targeting users this holiday season. Companies need to step up their ability to guess where cybercriminals will strike next. The amount of malware being punted around the internet is growing at an exponential rate, and traditional locally-based protection applications will soon buckle under the strain, web security firm F-Secure has warned. A number of recent studies have highlighted the security concerns over e-voting machines. An advisory group contends that the scramble over Dan Kaminsky's DNS flaw discovery proves that full disclosure is simply not feasible.
