Is URL / Variable Name the new Port Number ??
There has been a fair bit of blog buzz about the new SQL Injection worm that ran around infecting sites. I have not looked too deeply into it, but have not yet seen accounts of how the targeting was done. Since the sites do not appear to have been running a common framework i would guess that it was search-engine generated targets based on resource name (like inurl: search.asp).. For…
Strange Entries in your wbeserver logs, Wikto and questions about our Gender!
