Lamp server sandbox for testing malicious php script The difficulty with that is that calls to eval() can be arbitrarily obfuscated. If you don't discover and replace all calls to eval(), you can end up running the malicious code, instead of writing it to a file. |

How do you explain the necessity of “nuke it from orbit” to management and users? Good answer, KDEx: security is an economic good, with a cost and a value. My own thought is that the X% of malware is probably wildly overestimated, leading the the "nuke it from orbit" habit, but I've only really dealt with Solaris and Linux malware. Windows malware certainly sounds weirder and more persistent. |

Determining how my Wordpress website was compromised Why so skittish about details? Clearly, someone has figured these things out, and clearly they get used in the wild. Why bother concealing the details, if they make your explanation less clear, and more confusing? |

Determining how my Wordpress website was compromised I'd be interested in how it got hacked. I see a lot of (apparently) WordPress vulnerability scanning in my access_log file, but I can't lure anyone into sending me their payloads, no matter what weak plugin I try to emulate. Actually, I think that a good proportion of the scanning for WordPress vulnerabilities just won't work - the skiddies involved got duped into running bad code. |

Is there a website or free downloadable program to identify and remove malware from an ISO file? Can malware infest an image file? I mean, beside naming an executable on Windows NudeJenniferLopez.jpg.exe and praying someoe is dumb enough to click it, does any image file format have enough executable or interperable parts to carry malware? |

Example of a backdoor submitted to an open source project? Thanks for the OpenBSD IPSEC stack link. I vaguely remember that. Did anything come out of that allegation? I Googled for a while, and found a bunch of denials, but nothing definitive. |

Parabolic Denial Of Service — Would it work? @November - the clearest explanation of multicast I found: www4.ncsu.edu/~rhee/clas/csc495j/ip-multicast-part1.pdf As Jeff Ferland notes, the routers have to be in on the multicast, so if you're not on the same subnet, you can't use multicast to amplify even further. |
