Web Application Scanners Comparison
This is a comparison between some of the well known web scanners (Acuentix, HP WebInspect, IBM Rational Appscan). Do not depend on it totally, as there are some concerns about the methodology, however it is a good starting point.
Acuentix seems to be the best, I personally like it.

Malicious Shortcut
Malicious Shortcut is new way of dropping a mlaware on your PC, while the shortcut itself is not a malware, however, it contains a script to launch cmd.exe and ftp to a malicious ftp server and download malware.
The link can be sent by email or hosted on a web server, it is a nice trick to evade your email AV and your Internet filtering system.

JavaScript Obfuscators
I got some comments and suggestions on this entry so, I have updated it.
There are lots of commercial and open source Javascript obfuscators for legitimate use, such as enhancing the web page performance. Hackers are using the same tools to hide the malicious activity of their Javascript code, here is a small list of some of the available tools:

Quick notes:
- At the end of the day, the obfuscated code will be running on the browser without obfuscation, so this should not be considered as a security feature.
- The only reason from my point-of-view to study obfuscation is by the web filtering vendors to make sure that their internet filtering solutions can decode the obfuscated code before passing it to the end-user.
Some of the obfuscation techniques:
Character encoding, randomization of variables and function names, strings manipulation, comments insertion, code nesting, code shuffling, new line characters and NOPs, and encryption.

The largest data breach in history
Around 100 million credit and debit accounts have been leaked in the black market. A malware on a processing system in Heartland Payment Systems company is responsible of collecting this huge number of cards information, the exact details is not yet released including the exact number of leaked cards information and the exact parts of information that was leaked.

Millions of infections exploiting MS08-067
A malware is spreading everywhere, if you are following the basic general security recommendations, you should not be concerned, however the infection numbers are showing that people are still doing the same old mistakes. if you company is infected, it is an indication of a poor security policy.....
The estimated number of infected hosts is several millions worldwide, and it is getting worse.
Downadup or Conficker worm designed to call back home, and receive further instructions.
http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/00001584.html
the worm has other names:
Win32/Conficker.A (CA)
Mal/Conficker-A (Sophos)
Trojan.Win32.Agent.bccs (Kaspersky)
W32.Downadup.B (Symantec)
Propagation vector:
Like other worms, the infected machine will scan the network looking for vulnerable machines, but the worm has other ways of propagation, it will scan the company network trying to guess passwords using hundreds of common words, then infect these machines. It will also try to infect your removable USB stick and propagate using the autorun.inf
Once infected, the worm will disable many security services on the victim machine and will block access to some sites such as Microsoft and most Anti-Virus sites.

Mcafee Analysts discovered that the exploit used in this worm was made using Metasploit, which raise a concern about the security tools being used by the bad guys.
http://www.avertlabs.com/research/blog/index.php/2009/01/15/conficker-worm-using-metasploit-payload-to-spread/
In the early releases of the worm, the worm will expose the machine to a fake security software, earning 30$ per sale
http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=2388
The way the worm is calling home is a new technique. by using a complicated algorithm that is changing on daily basis, the worm will generate many possible domain names everyday and will try to connect to. It impossible to shut down all possible domains, because many of them are never registered, this gives the guys who are controlling the worm the ability to select the time and domain they want to use to get control of the infected machines. F-Secure manged to play the same game and predict un-registered domain name, and used it to control the worm.

- Use long difficult passwords
- MS Malicious Software Removal Kit is able to detect and clean the worm

VoIP Security incidents in 2008
The list of incidents are taken from Mark Collier's blog:
Most incidents in 2008 are fraud cases, where people are hacking the phone system of an organization to place lots of long distance calls, average losses per case are several thousands US dollars.

Cyber warfare against Israel
Several thousands of Israeli web sites have been hacked during the last few days, as part of Arab hackers reaction to the latest Israeli attack on Gaza, Palestine.
Several defacement are part of coordinated efforts, while others are just individual expressions.
Hackers are mainly from Algeria, Morocco, Egypt, Turkey, Saudi Arabia.
There were also some coordinated efforts to launch a DDOS attacks on some Israeli governmental sites, the hackers used many forums to distribute the message, tools, date and time to launch the attack, I would assume that the bad performance of Internet in the Arab world due to the cables cut in the Mediterranean, largely reduced the effect of the DDOS.
Updated:
Check the Arabic attack archive site: http://www.arabic-m.com for a list of hacked websites.
On the other side, Israel is making use of Internet channels like YouTube and Twitter to deliver their political messages, in addition to online monitoring service like http://israel.internet-haganah.com/

Updated:
Israeli domain registration server (DomainTheNet) was hacked by a Moroccan hackers group, the hackers were able to get a password that allowed them to change the DNS records of some web pages to be forwarded to other pages with some political messages.


Updated:
Israeli hackers developed a program and published it on the Internet attracting Israeli people to download the tool and contribute to the current cyber warfare between Israel and Palestine.
Analysis of the program was done by SANS, and it seems to be a risky one as it will try to connect to an irc server, and wait for orders, this can be used for many purposes.
The site is changing the location regularly, the last working address for it is http://help-israel-win.tk/

Updated:
USA military sites are now part of the war, turkish hacker successfully defaced some USA military web sites and NATO Parliament site using SQL-Injection attacks.

Nokia S60 phones exploit blocks SMS/MMS
DOS against Nokia Series 60 phones have been disclosed and demonstrated in 25th Chaos Communication Congress, Berlin , last week.
The 3GPP TS 23,040 standard specifies a method of sending email via SMS, if this email is longer than 32 characters, the affected symbian versions will fail to display the message or give any indication on the user interface, and the device will not be able to send or receive any more SMS or MMS messages.
S60 version 2.6 and 3.0 will be locked after just one message, while 2.8 and 3.1 will be locked up after more than 11 messages.
The only way to recover from this situation is to perform factory reset, no firmware update is available to fix this problem till now
Although this is not high security risk, the risk can be mitigated by the operators by filtering this kind of SMS on the network.

Evading Anti-Virus, the easy way
This is just an example of how well-known malware can evade Anti-Virus:
- Use a file splitter software to split the malware into several small size files
- Run the anti-virus engine locally to scan all the small files, the anti-virus will detect a signature of the malware in one or more of the small splitted files.
- Next step is to use a Hex editor to change the signature of these detected files, by changing any byte within the file.
- Test the anti-virus again against all edited files, you may want to repeat the process and change a different byte.
- Re-run your file splitter to un-split your files
- Test the malware if it works fine or your changes did break the code. You will have to start over again, if the code is broken.
- Once your tests succeeded, your malware should be now un-detectable.
