vulnerabilities is usually from the cvss points of view. Although Cvss has a significant effect in terms of rapid vulnerability prioritization and screening vulnerabilities, the sorting speed is often based on the circumstances in which the enterprise has localized its configuration. Cvss is a powerful monitoring tool, but all the metrics relied on to score are very general. In order to achieve the highest monitoring efficiency, it is necessary to localize the CVSS to a specific environment. B

OpenSMTPD bug found LibreSSL Vulnerability Qualys researchers want to see If OpenSMTPD (open-source SMTP protocol implementation) has a remote code execution vulnerability and cannot be found, so they want to check the library file's C Function malloc () s and free () s, results of a memory overflow (CVE-2015-5333) and a Buffer Overflow Vulnerability (CVE-2015-5334) found in OpenSSL alternative LibreSSL ). The LibreSSL team has released the fix. Ope

Red Hat Linux fixes vulnerabilities in the "libuser" Library Red Hat has fixed two vulnerabilities in the "libuser" library, which can be exploited by a local attacker to escalate permissions to the root user. The libuser Library provides an interface for operating and managing users and group accounts. This software package is installed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) by default, while other Linux distributions come from the Red Hat code library. The vulnerability was discovered by

Security Standard (pci dss) requires regular vulnerability assessment on the card processing system. Automation is the only practical way to meet this requirement. However, automation is not a panacea for PCI compliance. The standard acknowledges: "penetration testing is usually a highly manual replacement process. Although some automation tools can be used, testers need to use their system knowledge to penetrate into the environment ." Select your toolsetThe penetration tester's Toolkit should

In recent years, I have written many articles about HTTPS and HTTP/2, covering all aspects of certificate applications, Nginx compilation and configuration, and performance optimization. In the comments of these articles, a lot of readers raised a variety of questions, my mailbox also often received similar mail. This article is used to list some of the issues that are representative and I know the solution.In order to control the length, this article as far as possible only to give the conclusi

How to Set HTTPS policies for old browsers A few days ago, a friend asked me: we all said we recommend using the Qualys SSL Labs tool to test SSL security. Why are some of the most powerful Security manufacturers having low scores? I think this problem should be resolved in two aspects:The situation of domestic user terminals is complex. In many cases, the SSL security configuration is reduced to be compatible with more users. There are indeed some la

BKJIA May 8 Internet headlines] generally, as long as a software company releases patches for its own products, we should actively deploy them as they are of great significance for fixing vulnerabilities. However, sometimes the patch is not a real patch, but the configuration is changed. Take the patch that Oracle released earlier last week as an example. According to Qualys security product companies, this patch is designed for numbering CVE-201-1675

Google adjusts the search engine algorithm: HTTPS websites rank higher Google posted an announcement on its official blog that it has adjusted its search engine algorithm. websites using HTTPS encryption will rank higher in the search results. Google said it has tested whether the target website uses the Security Layer in the past few months. The goal is to encourage websites around the world to adopt HTTPS with higher security to ensure visitor security. Google said in its blog that secur

In encapsulation and interfaces, the private keyword encapsulates an internal member of an object. Encapsulated, the product hides the internal details and is provided only to the user interface (interface). Interfaces are very useful concepts that can assist in our abstract thinking. In real life, when we think of an appliance, we often think of the functional interface of the appliance. For example cups,
