OSX HFS+ Vulnerabilities

Heads Up: NetSec Security Operations Center has the low-down:

Remote users may be able to view arbitrary file data, including the source code of server side documents, such as PHP JSP documents. This data may contain sensitive information such as database usernames and passwords and/or disclose vulnerabilities to an attacker which can then be leveraged to further attack the respective web application.

iPods Everywhere (continued)

A follow-up on a previous post - this time from Khoi Vinh’s Subtraction:

Walk this way

So last Thursday morning I printed out a map that covered my route from my apartment in the East Village to my office on 27th Street, and as I walked, I made a little dot every time I spotted someone wearing those telltale headphones. In total, I counted thirty-two iPods.

Update: 16 March 05:
The phenomenon continues unabated.

Max Out Your Mini

Mac MiniFastMac minimax:

An upgrade service for Mac mini owners. $199 gets you either an 8x DVD burner with dual layer support, 1GB of RAM, or a 100GB hard drive.

While you’re at it, you might want to raise it with a Plasticsmith “mini Skirt“, or cover it with a “mini Grandstand” for a monitor, or stand it sideways with a “mini Tower“…
