chicagotribune.com— Security researchers on Tuesday said they had discovered an enormous flaw that could let hackers steer most people using corporate computer networks to malicious websites of their own devising.

The name server at this office is debian/bind9 and the website <a class="user" href="http://www.doxpara.com/">http://www.doxpara.com/</a> gave it the message "Your name server, at xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, appears to be safe." That is why I assumed it was a bind8 issue. They also have debian listed as "Vulnerable", I assumed it was because bind8 is still available in standard repos. As for yesterdays update to Vista, yesterday was patch tuesday.
Wow go Digg. This story is about 7 days old. Slashdot had it last week. 7 days in Internet security is like 5 years.Digg is an idiot nation.. tech news my ass.
Will not these hackers be more dangerous ? Why not considering the way to protect the network security? We can use some software to monitor our network 7x24 hours if you are worry about it.And...!! I have tried this software(Capsa from colasoft.com), and it works very well. It help us find the problem in a few seconds, and...o(∩_∩)o... very easy to use!!
This seems like a flaw that could be easily fixed and advertising it in an article may not be the best way to have let the people who needed to fix it know. Cyber security is hard enough for a company without every weakness being exposed to the public for a little recognition in an article.

I wonder how long it would take the hackers to discover the hole build a virus to take advantage of it.
